Published award criteria (3)
  • Quality: 30
  • Social Value: 5
  • Price: 65
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 65 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6.5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Provision of Office, Educational, Cleaning and Janitorial Supplies and…” 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.
