The evaluation process shall be as follows.\nThe SPD (Scotland) will include a series of Minimum Standards in relation to mandatory and discretionary criteria which govern the public\nsector and this specific requirement. These are pass/fail requirements and failure to provide adequate evidence on request of how these\nrequirements shall be met will result in automatic exclusion from the Tendering process. Each Bidder passing the Minimum Standards will\nthen be subject to a technical and commercial evaluation.The Technical section is allocated a total weighting of 80%. Scores shall be allocated based on the total percentage achieved by the\nresponse out of the maximum possible percentage. This takes into account the score out of 4.  Bidders will be required to\nachieve a minimum score of 50% or more of the overall technical score of 80% in order to progress to the commercial stage of evaluation. The Commercial (Price) section is allocated a total weighting of 20%. A pre recorded video will be required as part of the submission The bidder who submits the lowest cost will be awarded the\nmaximum score allocated to the price element and all other bids awarded a score pro rata, in relation to the lowest bid.  Bidders may submit bids for all or any of the Lots. However, where a bidder is evaluated as successful across all Lots, they will be required to confirm their preferred appointment, either Lot 1 OR Lot 2 and/or Lot 3 prior to contract award. Where a bidder is awarded a position on Lot 1 it will not be awarded a position on Lot 2 or 3.   For Lot 2 and 3 if a bidder is successful in both, the same supplier will not be ranked 1st in Lots 2 OR 3.  In this event a supplier is ranked 1st in both Lots, the supplier will be awarded 1st rank in their preferred Lot and be ranked 2nd in the remaining Lot with the original 2nd ranked supplier being elevated to 1st rank.\nNote: Technical Scoring Methodology\n0 Unacceptable\tNil or inadequate response. Fails to demonstrate an ability to meet the requirement.\n1 Poor\tResponse is partially relevant but generally poor.  The response addresses some elements of the requirement but contains insufficient/limited detail or explanation to demonstrate how the requirement will be fulfilled.\n2 Acceptable\tResponse is relevant and acceptable. The response addresses a broad understanding of the requirement but may lack details on how the requirement will be fulfilled in certain areas.\n3 Good\tResponse is relevant and good. The response is sufficiently detailed to demonstrate a good understanding and provides details on how the requirements will be fulfilled.\n4 Excellent\tResponse is completely relevant and excellent overall. The response is comprehensive, unambiguous and demonstrates a thorough understanding of the requirement and provides details of how the requirement will be met in full.
