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).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Split |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Road Maintenance | 40% | 60% | |
| 2 · Road Improvements | 40% | 60% | |
| 3 · Surface Dressing | 40% | 60% | |
| 4 · Application of Cold In Situ Recycling | 40% | 60% | |
| 5 · Retread & Micro Asphalt | 40% | 60% | |
| 6 · Spray Injection Patching | 40% | 60% |
- Price carries 60 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 6 points.
- “Midlothian Council_ Road Maintenance and Improvements framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 36 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
