Published award criteria (2)
- Quality and Social Value: 30% and 20%
- Price: 50 %
- Suitability
Further details will be provided in the tender documentation.
- Price carries 50 of 50 points: a 10% discount moves about 5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
- “Digital Autopsy Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
