- Method Statement: 560
- Social Value: 40
- Price: 400
- Price carries 400 of 1000 points: a 10% discount moves about 40 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “NHMF Frameworx Material Supply Framework Agreements 2022” 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.

The Contracting Authority will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the Contracts is communicated to all Economic Operators.
The standstill period provides time for unsuccessful Economic Operators to challenge the award decision before Framework Agreements are entered into. The Public Contract Regulations 2015 (as amended) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or who are at risk of harm by a breach of the Regulations to take action in the High Court of England and Wales.
After the expiry of the 10 day standstill period, the Contracting Authority will unless prevented by order of the High Court, conclude and enter into the Framework Agreements.
