Price

Lot distribution rule: Suppliers are invited to bid for both Lots 1 and 2. However, to avoid monopolies, one Supplier cannot win both lots, i.e. there will be two separate suppliers, one for each lot. In the scenario where the same Supplier achieves the highest score for both lots, then the Supplier will be awarded Lot 1 only, and their evaluation result for Lot 2 will be excluded from the final outcome for Lot 2.

What this means for your bid

Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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