Lots and requirements (2)Procurement structure
2 lots · all with a published value · win at most 6 of them · evaluation weights differ by lotEvery one of these 2 lots carries the same published figure, £3,000,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.
Lot #1Main - 110m kWhRenewalceiling above
For Lot 1 all procurement decisions (i.e. time to market) are made by Manchester City Council directly. Any schools / associated sites that are within these Lot(s) have already given Manchester City Council delegated authority to act on their behalf.
Lot #2Non-mainstream independent supplies - 24m kWhRenewalceiling above
Lot 2 is for autonomous bodies that make procurement decisions independently of MCC. They use Manchester City Council to facilitate their competitive procurement exercises but will ultimately contract directly with the supplier and be the ultimate decision maker.

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).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Social value | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Main - 110m kWh | 40% | 40% | 20% | |
| 2 · Non-mainstream independent supplies - 24m kWh | 40% | 40% | 20% |
- Price carries 40 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 4 points.
- “TC473 Supply of Gas” 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.
