Published requirement description

These services were originally Lots 1 & 3 of the procurement for the Expert Support & Alternative Treatment Solutions Framework (TED Reference: 2020/S 133-328094, CTM Reference: rft12133), and were removed from that procurement in order to maintain its integrity when required amendments were identified to these Lots. These Lots will be let with end dates to bring them in line with Lots 2 & 4 (see section 1.4), with the option for LLWR to extend the end date for a further nine months. A summary of the changes made to the Lots is:

Lot 1 requires additional support to verification and validation of on-going work, work packs and records, compliance audit and assurance support;
Lot 3 requires waste assurance, compliance and auditing support. Further detail is provided in the individual scopes of work, and any additional requirements relating to pricing are reflected in Appendix 10 to this ITT.

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

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

Lot	Quality	Price	Social value	Split
1 · SQE Support	65%	25%	10%
2 · Expert Support	65%	25%	10%

What this means for your bid

Price carries 25 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 2.5 points.
“Expert Support & Alternative Treatment Solutions - SQE Support and…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 9 suppliers, not a single contract.

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