What is being bought

Published requirement description

Platform Housing Limited (PHL) is a not-for-profit housing organisation that has been established for almost 40 years. PHL provides over 46,000 affordable homes in the Midlands and are building many more homes each year causing PHL’s requirements for mobile telephony to constantly change. The current plan is to build 12,000 homes in the next 5 years. PHL’s aim is to procure a relevant supplier of both mobile handsets and mobile sim connections for a multitude of devices that have connectivity across the entire Midlands.

Any successful tender will go into contract with one of the subsidiaries of PHG – Platform Housing Ltd (PHL), so PHG is unable to contract at the parent company level. PHL also includes one other main contracting authority Platform Property Care Ltd (PPC), many of the devices/sim requirements will be for PPC, however the contract will be lead and in the name of PHL.

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).

Quality: 40%Price: 60%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 40
  • Price: 60
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Mobile Phones” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.

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