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).
- Simple description: Bidders will be awarded a place on the framework based on Citize's Price per Quality Point (PQP) Evaluation mechanism. Here the bidders submitted cost is divided by their total scored wighted quality points. The lower the PQP score the better. Citizen are looking to appoint 3-4 suppliers onto the framework, but may award to less depending on the quality of submissions recieved. There are 3 Pass/Fail questions and then the scored quality questions. Also required from the bidders is a completed pricing schedule (Individual rates and a quote exercise) and a signed form of tender.
- “2024 - 1053 - Supply & Installation of Carpets and Flooring in Coventry” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
