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

Lot distribution rule: Tenderers can bid for all lots of interest to them but to ensure contractors do not overstretch their capacity and can provide the services within expected timeframes, the number of lots awarded to contractors may be restricted. A single contractor will only be awarded 1st ranked position on a maximum of one lot (lots 1, 2 or 3). If they are also the top ranked contractor on a second or the third lot as well, they will only be permitted 2nd ranked contractor for these lots under the framework. Please see tender documentation for further information.

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 for Cyclical Decoration services - 2026/2030” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 5 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.

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