Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 60
- Price: 40
- Suitability
Bidders will be required to complete a Competency Assessment which has been designed to assist Home Group to conform with the Building Safety Act 2022 and the Building Regulations 2010 by assessing competence and conduct.
Home Group will review the information provided in response to this Competency Questionnaire in the round. If the information provided raises concerns about the bidder’s competency and ability to perform the required roles under the applicable building safety legislation and, therefore, its suitability for the framework Home Group may seek further clarification from the bidder. If the bidder is unable to satisfy Home Group on the issues raised, Home Group may exclude the bidder from the procurement process.
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Home Group Principal Designer Services Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 12 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
