Conditions of participation2
  • Economic & financial standing

    See Section 1 Part C and Section 3 Part A for the conditions of participation that are applicable to this opportunity.

  • Technical & professional ability

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 80 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 8 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Heavy Commercial Vehicle Parts Supply (Over 3.5T)” 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.
