What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 100–170 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 170 points.
  • “The Supply of Field Supplies” 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.
