References should be completed and signed by previous customers for contracts of a similar value, size and scope. If any of the referees score the bidder less than 2 the bidder will be excluded from the tender process.
Completed experience and reference templates must be zipped and uploaded at question 4C.1 of the qualification envelope.
Bidders are required to confirm the supplier's staff have the following relevant educational and professional qualifications:

- Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
