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 award criteria (3)
- Social Value: 10
- Quality: 40
- Price: 40
- Price carries 40 of 90 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. Quality carries 40 of 90: the paper moves it further than the discount.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
