How this buyer will score bids.

Published award criteria (2)
- Quality and Social Value: 55% and 15%
- Price: 30%
- Price carries 30 of 30 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
