- Price: 80%
- Social Value: 10%
Published award criteria (3)
- Quality Questions: Quality will be assessed using the tenderers responses to 2 quality questions. Responses will be assessed against the individual scoring matrices provided in Section 1 Part C.
- Social Value: Social Value will be assessed. This is split into qualitative and quantitative. For this opportunity only the qualitative element will be assessed and scored using the matrix in Section 1 Part C.
- Price: Price will be assessed using the tenderers submission against Section 3 Part C which is the Councils Core Basket of Goods.
- Economic & financial standing

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