Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 30
- Price: 70

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

Publisher note: The successful contractor’s performance on the contract will be regularly monitored. Contractors not delivering on contract requirements. is a serious matter.

If, after the specified. time, they still fail to reach satisfactory levels of contract. performance, the matter will be escalated to senior management in CPD for further action. If this occurs and their. performance still. does not improve to satisfactory levels within the specified period, it may. be regarded as an act of grave professional misconduct and. they may be issued with a. Certificate of Unsatisfactory Performance and the contract may be terminated. The issue of. a Certificate of. Unsatisfactory Performance will result in the contractor being excluded from. all procurement competitions being undertaken by Centres. of Procurement Expertise on. behalf of bodies covered by the Northern Ireland Procurement Policy for a period of twelve months from. the date of issue of the certificate
