Published award criteria (3)
- Quality: Quality, technical merit, Customer service, and in relation to the IT System, functionality evaluated from the tendered Method Statements, [interview /presentation] [site visit] and IT System assessment]

- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Multi-Disciplinary Consultancy Services Tranche 1” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 50 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
