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).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
2 more lots publish their own split on the notice.
- Price carries 70 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 7 points.
- “FW Services - Tree Maintenance South - Multi Site 0928” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 14 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
