How this buyer will score bids.

Published award criteria (3)
- Technical: 10
- Priority Supplier Programme: 2
- Price: 88
- Price carries 88 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 8.8 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
- “Suction Consumables” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
