- award its Standard Goods and Services requirement to the Framework Provider who obtains the highest score using the Standard Award Criteria;

(a) states the Standard Goods and Services requirements;

- Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Lift Maintenance” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract, and call-offs are awarded directly: getting appointed is the whole game.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
