What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Talking Lincs Self Advocacy Service will empower adults with learning disabilities, learning difficulties, autistic people and the neurodivergent community, those living with mental ill health and carers to speak up for themselves and their peers with the aim of improving the lives and services offered to people within North Lincolnshire.  To achieve this, we need to be able to hear the voice of people with lived experience and understand from them the issues they face in their daily lives.  This approach will support and influence the development of services across the council and partner organisations.

  • Quality
  • Price
  • Social Value
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 50 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 5 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.
