Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 50
- Price: 50
- Economic & financial standing

- Technical & professional ability
Tenderer's are required to ensure they can supply equipment that complies with SOLAS and IMO regulations.
- Price carries 50 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
