What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 35 of 75 points: a 10% discount moves about 3.5 points. Quality carries 40 of 75: the paper moves it further than the discount.
  • “Production of Spacers for 6m Boxes” is a dynamic market: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

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