Published description of the framework

Tenderers must complete the Price Submission. The prices entered in the Price Submission must be exclusive of VAT.

The Tenderer’s total price is first compared with the Norm Total Cost for the equivalent number and type of dwellings to produce an index for the tender. (A tender higher than the Norm Total Cost would have an index greater than 100 and a tender lower than the Norm Total Cost would have an index less than 100. The calculations will be undertaken to two decimal places.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 100 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 10 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “TRIANGLE HOUSING ASSOCIATION - DERRY CITY (BT48) - LAND, DESIGN AND…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 3 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.

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