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 | Split |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Service Delivery, Transformation and Operational Services | 100% | — | |
| 2 · Technical Advice and Support | 75% | 25% |
- Price carries 25 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 2.5 points.
- “Technology Framework Agreement 2 [4899761]” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 7 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

- Review procedure
PaLS will incorporate a standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers. That notification will provide full information on the award decision. The standstill period, which will be for a minimum of 10 calendar days provides time for unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the award decision before the contract is entered into. The Public Contract Regulations 2015 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court, England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Publisher note: In Section I.2, it is stated that this procurement is a joint procedure and Contract award is by a Central Purchasing Body. The Contract is not a Joint Contract, it is a Central Purchasing Body Contract operated by the Business Services Organisation, PaLS on behalf of the participants listed at I.1. The Contracting Authority has identified the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) on the basis of the evaluation as detailed within the Tender documentation.
