What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 100 of 200 points: a 10% discount moves about 10 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “RWM703 Site Characterisation Interpretation Support Framework” 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.
