How bids were scored · same split on all 4 lots
Price: 90%Social value: 10%
Published award criteria (3)
  • Provider Facility Details and Method Statement: Pass/Fail
  • Social Value: 10
  • Price: 90
Lot distribution rule: Tenderers are invited to bid for all or any of the lots. However, tenderers shall note that the maximum number of lots a tenderer can be awarded is two, and tenderers are not able to be awarded both lots at a single Authority waste facility. For example, a tenderer may bid for all four lots, but the maximum the tenderer can be awarded is one lot from Farington Waste Recovery Plant (Lot 1 or Lot 2) and one lot from Thornton Waste Recovery Plant (Lot 3 or Lot 4).The only exception to this will be if there is only one tenderer for Lot1/Lot2 or Lot 3/4, in which case, subject to agreement with the tenderer, and subject to that tenderer having the relevant capacity at the provider facility to accommodate both lots following evaluation of all lots, a tenderer may be awarded both lots at a single Authority waste facility and be awarded up to a maximum of four lots.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 90 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 9 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.
