Bidders can submit pricing for one or all LOTS but must be able to provide services in both areas (Area 1, Norwich City and Area 2, Norfolk). Works for Lots 1-3 will be awarded by way of Call-Off, a "basket of goods" approach will be used to determine the requirements of each call off, awards to be based on price and availability for the combination of inputs the works require.

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).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 70 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 7 points.
  • “Provision of Layered Patching and Associated Repair Works Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.

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