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

Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 60
  • Price: 40
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Framework Agreement for the Provision of 16+ Semi-Independent…” 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.

Review and risk notes
Review procedure

The contracting authority will incorporate a minimum ten (10) day standstill period at the

point information on the award of the contract is notified to tenderer's. This period allows

contract is entered into. Additional information should be requested from the contact in

Section 1.1 if an appeal regarding the award of contract has not been successfully resolved.

The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (S1 2015 no 102) provides for aggrieved parties who

are harmed or at risk of harm by a breach of the rules take action in the High Court (England and Wales).
