The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored
Quality: 60%Price: 40%
Published sub-criteria (2)
  • Quality: 60%
  • Cost: 40%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality : This will be evaluated based on your response to the quality questions as detailed within this invitation to tender document. The total quality weighting of 60% is sub divided as per the matrix detailed below. The Tender evaluated with the overall highest total score will be awarded the maximum 60% quality score available. All other tenders will be attributed a score equivalent to the percentage difference they are away from the highest quality score evaluated.
  • Cost: Pricing will be evaluated in accordance with your response to the Pricing Schedule/s. The tender with the lowest total price will be awarded the maximum 40% price score available. All other tenders will be attributed a score equivalent to the percentage difference they are away from the lowest price received.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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