- Demonstrated ability to deliver similar projects: The Council would like to see that similar projects have been successfully delivered before and are reliable.
- Price within budget
- Use of local resources and skills: The Council is keen to see Isle of Wight residents involved in the scheme.
- Price carries 25 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2.5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
