Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 65
- Price: 35
- Condition of participationno text publishedMinimum: Please refer to the SPD for details of minimum insurance requirements.
- Staff
- Names and qualifications of delivery staff must be submitted
- Price carries 35 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3.5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Framework agreement for the provision of landscape advice” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 10 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
