What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 50 of 150 points: a 10% discount moves about 5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Farming Connect - Lot 2 Accredited Training Course Programme tender to…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

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