  • Social Value
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.

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

Commercial outcome & contract awards

Awards 1
Awarded toValueDateStatus
supplier not published—17 Sept 2026CancelledThe Authority has had to discontinue this procurement exercise and will not proceed to contract award at this time. Following a review of the procurement documentation, it was identified that the requirements relating to CDM design responsibilities were not adequately reflected within the specification and tender documentation. In addition, amendments are required to the quality evaluation questions. To ensure compliance with procurement principles and to provide all bidders with a fair and transparent opportunity to compete on a consistent basis, the procurement has now been abandoned. The Council would like to thank all suppliers for their interest and participation and reserves the right to recommence the procurement at a future date following completion of the review and revision process.
