How bids were scored
Price: 100%
Published award criteria (1)
  • Price: The total maximum value of the contract is £65,000 excluding VAT. Tenderers are requested to provide a detailed breakdown of quantities against the requested items to utilise as much of the total maximum value of the contract as possible. Any tender submission that exceeds the declared contract value of £65,000 excluding VAT will be considered non-compliant and will be excluded from the procurement process.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 100 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 10 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.
