How bids were scored
Price: 100%
Published sub-criteria (1)
  • Cost: 100%
Published award criteria (1)
  • Cost: Places on the Framework will be awarded as described in the Tender Documentation. The Award Criteria for call off contracts will be based on 100% cost.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 100 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 10 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Framework for the Supply and Delivery of Glassa and Glazing Materials” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: each call-off is a further competition, so the pricing contest starts after appointment.

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