What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40–60 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 60 points.
  • “NEX22/48 Zero Value Framework for Environment and Sustainability…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

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