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
How bids were scored

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

LotQualityPriceSplit
1 · Newcastle Under Lyme Borough Council30%70%
2 · Stafford Borough Council30%70%
3 · Staffordshire Moorlands District Council20%80%
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 70–80 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 70 points.
  • “Framework Agreement for the Transportation and Processing of Garden…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 3 suppliers, not a single contract.

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