The decision has been made by a multi disciplined panel made up of local authority officers, including the Assistant Director of Public Health, Public Health Commissioners, Public Health Managers and key external stakeholders. There were no conflicts of interest declared.
The invitation to tender documentation detailed the qualification and assessment criteria, each bidder had to:
- comprehensively complete the Selection Questionnaire (parts 1 to 4, including upload acceptable alternative documents where applicable), pass all Pass / Fail questions and meet the required standard for scored questions in the Selection Questionnaire
- meet the required minimum scores in relation to Quality as set out in the Award Criteria;
- ensure the bid did not exceed the available budget and met the affordability criteria
The award criteria, used to evaluate the bids and select a successful bidder to which the Council intends to award the Contract, were designed to allow the selection of the bid that represents the most economically advantageous tender, rather than lowest price alone. This evaluation was based on a combination of quality and financial criteria as set out below:
- Price 30%
- Quality 70%
The quality criteria were broken down by the key quality aspects, these were weighted by relative importance.
The chosen providers ranked the highest.
