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).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Social value | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Street Lighting Solution and Associated Services | 70% | 20% | 10% | |
| 2 · Street Lighting Lamp Posts, Columns and Bollards with built in Electric Vehicle Charge Points and Associated Services | 70% | 20% | 10% | |
| 3 · Professional Services | 90% | — | 10% |
- Price carries 20 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 2 points.
- “Supply of Street and External Lighting Solutions and Associated Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
