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).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more

Lot distribution rule: There is no limitation on the number of lots a supplier can bid for. Each Lot will be evaluated separately. The criteria applicable to each lot is included in the ITT document.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 4 points.
  • “CLI-FTS-58614 Insulin Pumps, CGM, Associated Diabetes Consumables and…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 50 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.

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