Published award criteria (3)
- Quality: 70
- Social Value: 10
- Price: 20%
- Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
