How bids were scored
Published award criteria (3)
- Quality: 25
- Social Value: 5
- Price: 70
What this means for your bid
- Price carries 70 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 7 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.
