How this buyer will score bids.
The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).
Lots publish different evaluation splits — there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Social value | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · General Electrical Services | 20% | 70% | 10% | |
| 2 · Specialist Electrical Services | 20% | 70% | 10% | |
| 3 · Gas Mechanical Services | 55% | 35% | 10% | |
| 4 · Fire Protection Mechanical Services | 20% | 70% | 10% | |
| 5 · General Mechanical Services | 20% | 70% | 10% |

- Price carries 35–70 points depending on the lot — most lots put it at 70 points.
- “RC016/2024 PPM” is a framework — the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract — each call-off is a further competition, so the pricing contest starts after appointment.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring — the tender pack may use another formula.
