How bids were scored
Published award criteria (2)
- Price: 90%
- Social Value: 10%
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.
