What it takes to win
i

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 25 lots
Quality: 40%Price: 60%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 40
  • Price: 60
Lot distribution rule: Successful Economic Operator Teams may be awarded up to 3 lots however they will not be awarded more than 1 lot in any single HSC Trust area.
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.
  • “DOH 3594020 FRAMEWORKS FOR CONSULTANCY SERVICES FOR BELFAST, NORTHERN,…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 21 suppliers, not a single contract.

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