Published award criteria (4)
- Method Statements: 20
- Examples of jobs completed: 30
- Social Value: 10
- Price: 40
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Print & Design Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 10 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
