What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 75 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 7.5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Finance Solutions” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: each call-off is a further competition, so the pricing contest starts after appointment.

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