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).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Split |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Cost Contract | 30% | 70% | |
| 2 · Subsidy Contract | 30% | 70% |
- Price carries 70 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 7 points.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
