Lots and requirements (2)Procurement structure

2 lots · all with a published value · evaluation weights differ by lot

Every one of these 2 lots carries the same published figure, £300,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.

How this buyer will score bids.

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

How bids were scored

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40–80 points depending on the lot. Read the split per lot below.
  • “Provision for Coroners Transport” is a framework: 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.
