Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 40
- Price: 60
- Suitability
Tenderers will only be shortlisted by organisations who can evidence they have sufficient resources - in this instance RIBA qualified Architects, can provide details of ISO quality accreditations, and appropriate insurance coverage.
- Staff
- Names and qualifications of delivery staff must be submitted
- Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
