- Quality: 80%

Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 80
- Cost: 20
- Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Supply, Servicing and Maintenance of Water Rescue Equipment” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
