What it takes to win
i

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).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

Lot distribution rule: The Tender has been divided into Lots and Tenderers are invited to bid for all or any of the Lots. Lot 6 is a Package Lot encompassing Lots 1 to 5. Package Lots will be Quality scored using the same methodology as other individual Lot bidders. These scores will then be weighted to the relative value of the Lot (based upon expiring premium spend), to limit disproportionate scoring for smaller Lots
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60–70 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 60 points.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
