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 · Supply and Application of Surface Dressing Binder | 55% | 40% | 5% | |
| 2 · Supply only of Surface Dressing Binder | 55% | 40% | 5% |
- Price carries 40 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 4 points.
- “Supply and Application of Surface Dressing Binder” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, 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.
