- Price carries 20–30 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 30 points.
- “Legal Panel for Public Sector” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: each call-off is a further competition, so the pricing contest starts after appointment.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
