  • Technical & professional ability

    Bidders must complete Question 4C1.2 (Technical Professional Ability Great Scottish Run Document) of the Single Procurement Document (SPD). The SPD can be found in the Qualification envelope of Project 24271 of the Public Contracts Scotland Tenders (PCS-T) website

    The bidders response to this question will be evaluated in accordance of scoring methodology set out within the Invitation to Tender document (Please refer to Section 8 Evaluation Criteria of the Invitation to Tender).

    Please note that the Invitation to Tender can be found in the supplier's attachment area of the Public Contracts Scotland Tender website (PCS-T).

    The section has a total available score of 100 points, with an available score of 33.33 points attributed to each example. Glasgow Life expects that bidders should attain a total score of at least 64 of the available 100 points. Any bidder failing to achieve the minimum score may (at Glasgow Life's discretion) be excluded and the bidder will be notified accordingly. Please note that where a bidder is excluded at this selection criteria stage, the bidder will not be evaluated under the evaluation criteria stage.

    Minimum: Bidders are required to provide 3 examples of a similar size or value within the last FIVE years, from either the public or private sector where your organisation has the relevant experience to deliver the scope of service. Your examples must include multi-venue environments; sho…
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.

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