Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: Framework Delivery - 10% Geographic service delivery - 5% Communication Protocols and Issue Resolution - 5% Future proofing - 5% Integration with Client Systems - Asset Management Portal (NEC) & Compliance Database (C365) - 10% Tenant Communication and Complaints Handling - 10% Collaboration - 10% Quality Assurance and Audit frequency - 5% Social Value - 10%
- Price: Accumulated price for all Schedule of Rates
- Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “ML2025/004 - Asbestos Surveying, Sampling, Air Monitoring, Consultancy…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 4 suppliers, not a single contract, and call-offs are awarded directly: getting appointed is the whole game.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
