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).
Published sub-criteria (4)
- Lead Times: 12.5%
- Minimum Order Quantities: 12.5%
- Other Criteria: 25%
- price: 50%
Published award criteria (4)
- Lead Times: 12.5
- Minimum Order Quantities: 12.5
- Other Criteria: 25
- Price: 50
- Price carries 50 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
- “KCS Own Brand Paper Based Stationery, Stationery, Art & Craft and…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
