Must have the appropriate licenses and accreditations associated with the RFFP.
- Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “HR Resourcing RFFP” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 15 suppliers, not a single contract.
