What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 63.8 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 6.4 points.
  • “Bread, Milk, Baked Goods & Dairy” 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.
