Published award criteria (2)
- Price: Contractors are asked to submit a pricing schedule for each element of the work as set out in the Schedule of Works section and a total tendered price. Price will carry 20% of the scoring
- Quality: Quality will be evaluated from the information submitted by the Contractor and against the criteria set out in this section. A panel of Councillors and Officers will evaluate each submission. Contractors are encouraged to submit information that allows the Council to clearly understand what is being proposed. Contractors are encouraged to present their proposals in a clear itemised manner with supporting visual plans. Contractors are required to present information outlining how they will approach the delivery of the project specifically for Drayton Bassett Playing Fields and show how they plan to accommodate the Council's timescales. See the tender document for full details.
No conditions of participation were published on the notice; check the tender documents.
- Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- Turnover usually expected at this size: about £168,000 (twice the annual value).
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula. Turnover is an indicative market norm (≈2× annual value), not a published condition.

About this data
- Estimates, labelled. The price range, possible competitors and earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards, not published facts, win chances or price advice. The buyer’s own record and the wider market are shown apart, never mixed.
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender and Contracts Finder), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0, updated through the day and rebuilt nightly. Not every figure uses both feeds, and each one shows how many records it rests on: see the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
