Published award criteria (2)
- Technical: Bidders will be evaluated on the robustness of their proposed service delivery model, approach, reporting, experience and ability to meet the specification requirements.
- Financial: The Price submissions will be evaluated based on the total cost submitted. The lowest price will receive the highest score, with other bids scored proportionately. The lowest compliant tender will be awarded the full 30.00%. All other prices will be scored using the formula: (A / B) x 30, where A = price of the lowest compliant tender, and B = the price of the tender being evaluated. Example: Supplier A – £400.00 → 30.00% Supplier B – £450.00 → (400/450)*30 = 26.66% Supplier C – £500.00 → (400/500)*30 = 24.00%
- Condition of participation

- Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
