How this buyer will score bids.

Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 60%
- Price: 40%
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
