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).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

Lot distribution rule: Tenderers may choose to bid for either one or both of the lots. The lots are subdivided into feasibilities for Primary Schools (Lot 1) and High Schools (Lot 2) within the county. There are variances in the requirements for these two groups - a full description can be found in the tender document.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 3 points.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
