How bids were scored
Price: 40
Published award criteria (2)
  • 60: Technical
  • Price: 40
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 40 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 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.
