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 | Split |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Height Safety - National | 60% | 40% | |
| 2 · Height Safety - Southern | 60% | 40% | |
| 3 · Height Safety - Northern | 60% | 40% | |
| 4 · Height Safety - Scotland | 60% | 40% | |
| 5 · Lightning Protection - National | 40% | 60% | |
| 6 · Lightning Protection - Southern | 60% | 40% | |
| 7 · Lightning Protection - Northern | 60% | 40% | |
| 8 · Lightning Protection -Scotland | 60% | 40% |
- Price carries 40–60 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 40 points.
- “Working at Height & Lightning Protection” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
