What it takes to win
i

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored · same split on all 13 lots
Quality: 60%Price: 40%

  • Quality Evaluation: 60%

  • Price Evaluation: As per Tender documentation
  • Quality Evaluation: As per Tender Documentation
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “National Framework for Civil Engineering, Infrastructure and Enabling…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, 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.
