2 · Non-GMP pDNA70%30%

Conditions of participation1
  • Suitability

    Bidders will need to provide the necessary quality information requested as part of question 1 within the response to tender document for lots 1 & 3, to ensure they meet the appropriate quality standards required.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 3 points.
  • “2459 - Supply of DNA” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 9 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
