Conditions of participation1
  • Technical & professional ability

    Execution of the service is reserved to a particular profession

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 55 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 5.5 points.
  • “South East Consortium Asset Consultancy Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 64 suppliers, not a single contract.

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