Published award criteria (2)
  • Method Statement: Bidders are required to upload a method statement detailing: · Their understanding of the Brief, including an assessment of key requirements that arise. · Detail of the proposed approach and methodology including a programme of work which reflects the requirements of the commission. · Include innovative approaches for the delivery of the contract. · Detail your management to achieve the requirement within the given timeframe including reporting and recording methodology and approach to recommendations.
  • Price: Bidders are required to upload a spreadsheet that gives a full breakdown of costs for the refurbishment works. There should be a sperate breakdown of costs within the spreadsheet for the works to the 16T vehicles and the 26T vehicles.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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