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).
Published sub-criteria (4)
- Delivering the Framework Agreement: 25%
- Service Delivery: 40%
- price: 25%
- Social Value: 10%
Published award criteria (4)
- Delivering the Framework Agreement: 25
- Service Delivery: 40
- Social Value: 10
- Price: 25
- Price carries 25 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2.5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Y21012 - Supply of Legal Services” 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.
