Published award criteria (2)
  • Mobilise/Development/Community/Residents/Behaviour/Staff/Retention/SV: 5/5/5/5/10/10/5/5
  • Price: 50
What this means for your bid
  • 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.

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