What this means for your bid

  • “PURCH2737 Provision of Framework Agreement for the Provision of Gowns,…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.

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