- Suitability
Organisations must ensure that they are not in breach of any of the mandatory or discretionary exclusions contained in Regulation 57 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Please refer to the Tender Documentation/ Online Tender located on our E-Procurement system. The web address can be found under ‘Procurement Documents’ in ‘Communication’ section in this notice.
- Price carries 30–40 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 30 points.
- “GMCA 1043 2 x High Reachable Turret Vehicles (HRET)” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
