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).
Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 90
- Price: 10
- Price carries 10 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 1 point. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Framework of Training Providers for Skills Bootcamp Delivery” 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.

Publisher note: The total estimated maximum value of this framework agreement for the 3 year term is £8,000,000 across all lots. However this requirement is dependent upon the College being awarded relevant funding and it would therefore be difficult to provide a breakdown per lot.
