Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 30
- Price: 70
- Suitability
Suppliers must meet financial and insurance requirements contained within SPD (Scottish Procurement Document).
- Staff
- Names and qualifications of delivery staff must be submitted
- 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.
- “Roads and Transport Infrastructure Construction Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 84 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
