Published award criteria (2)
- Price: Price Evaluation
- Quality: Response to Quality Questions
- Price carries 70 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 7 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.
