How this framework works

From the published notice
Places
up to 24 suppliers · 7 bids on the busiest of 3 lots (0.3 per place) · 8 appointed

Lots and requirements (3)Procurement structure

3 lots · all with a published value · a supplier may bid for at most 3 and win at most 3 of them · same evaluation weights on every lot

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).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored · same split on all 3 lots
Quality: 45%Price: 55%
Published sub-criteria (2)
  • Quality: 45%
  • Pricing: 55%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 45.00%
  • Pricing: 55.00%
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 55 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 5.5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Salon Products and Equipment” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 24 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
