Published award criteria (2)
- Cost
- Quality
- Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Site Set Up and Establishment” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract, and call-offs are awarded directly: getting appointed is the whole game.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

Published amendments (1)
The extension end date, if all extensions are exercised, has been amended from 25 August 2031 to 26 August 2030. The original notice incorrectly stated an end date of 25 August 2031, which would have resulted in a total framework duration of five years. This has now been corrected, and the correct final end date is 26 August 2030.
