Lot distribution rule: Lot 1 – Manufacture and Supply of PADC Plastic As detailed in the technical specification for PADC Manufacture covering the supply of PADC Plastic. The supplier will solely be responsible for supplying the required quantity of sheets to the second supplier who will undertake the work based in Lot 2. Lot 2 – Cutting and encoding of PADC Plastic Once the second supplier takes delivery of the PADC Plastic sheets, it is their responsibility to cut and encode the sheets as per the exact technical requirements set out in the Specification for cutting and encoding.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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

The service is provided to users of ionising radiation in a variety of sectors, e.g. medical and nuclear, which measures workers’ radiation doses by means of dosemeters or “badges”. We are carrying out preliminary market engagment for this project as part of the pre-tender market engagement process.
