What it takes to win
i

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 · same split on all 5 lots
Quality: 10%Price: 90%
Published sub-criteria (2)
  • Technical: 10%
  • Commercial: 90%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Technical: Packaging
  • Commercial: Price
Lot distribution rule: Lots will be awarded on a sole supplier basis
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 90 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 9 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “General Medical Assessment Consumables” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, 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.
