Published sub-criteria (3)
- Method Statement: 560
- price: 400
- Social Value: 40
- Price carries 400 of 1000 points: a 10% discount moves about 40 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “NHMF Frameworx Consultancy Framework Agreements 2022 - Energy…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 20 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
