Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 80
- Price: 20
- Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “ENVIRONMENT & TRANSPORT – COMMISSIONING FRAMEWORK (E&T-CF) Lots 1,2…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 15 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
