What it takes to win
i

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).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

Lot distribution rule: There is no restriction on the number of Lots a supplier may bid for or be awarded. Lots will be evaluated in accordance with the published evaluation criteria, and awards will be made on a Lot-by-Lot basis. Where a supplier is successful for multiple Lots, the Council reserves the right to award those Lots to a single supplier. Lot 3 represents a combined Lot for pricing and discount purposes only and does not constitute additional service delivery beyond Lots 1 and 2.
Conditions of participation · identical on every lot2
  • Economic & financial standing

    Please refer to the documents on the eTenderWales portal for more information.

  • Technical & professional ability

    Please refer to the documents on the eTenderWales portal for more information.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30–100 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 30 points.

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