- Quality: 40
- Price: 60
- Suitability
The successful Supplier(s) must retain appropriate permits or relevant exemptions for their facility and operations throughout the Contract term.
- 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.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
