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).
How bids were scored
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Split |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Capital Works | 40% | 60% | |
| 2 · Repairs and Maintenance | 60% | 40% |
What this means for your bid
- Price carries 40–60 points depending on the lot. Read the split per lot below.
- “Brickworks Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 4 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
