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 · same split on all 2 lots
Quality: 60%Price: 40%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 60%
  • Price: 40%
Lot distribution rule: Lot 1: Up to 4 suppliers will be awarded, based on their weighting of both price and quality. Lot 2: Highest overall scoring supplier on both price and quality will be awarded. Both lots have a minimum threshold of 50% for Quality scores - any bidders scoring under this will be excluded automatically. In the event that any suppliers response to a quality question scores a zero to any answer the supplier will be immediately excluded. In the event that any supplier scores two or more ‘one’s’ in their quality questions, they will be immediately excluded.
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.
  • “Community Reablement at Home Pilot” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 5 suppliers, not a single contract, and call-offs are awarded directly: getting appointed is the whole game.

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