Lot awarding rule: Award Criteria: Waste & Resource Management Services Client: Tudor Park Education Trust Project: Contract Award Methodology Evaluation Overview Tudor Park Education Trust will award this contract based on the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT). This approach ensures that quality, safety, and environmental impact are balanced against financial cost. The evaluation will be weighted as follows: ● Quality (Technical & Environmental): 40% ● Price (Commercial): 60% 1. Mandatory Requirements (Pass/Fail) Bidders must meet these criteria to proceed to the scoring phase: • Licensing: Valid Waste Carrier's License. • Certification: ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) or equivalent. • Sector Experience: Evidence of managing at least two education sector contracts of similar size/complexity. • Safeguarding: DBS clearance for all site-facing personnel. • Availability: Capability to provide year-round Saturday collections. 2. Quality & Technical Evaluation (40%) Bidders will be scored based on their responses in the Selection Questionnaire (SQ). The 40% Quality score is broken down into the following sub-criteria: Criteria Weighting Focus Areas Operational Reliability 25% Ability to meet the pre-08:30 weekday and pre-10:00 Saturday deadlines. Methodology for maintaining a 98% collection success rate and resolving issues within 5 hours. Safety & Safeguarding 10% Commitment to the "zero-harm" environment. Use of vehicles with 360-degree cameras and audible alarms. Adherence to strict site protocols (brakes engaged, bin stores locked). Data Transparency 5% Provision of granular, weigh-scale accurate data for every collection to support carbon footprint reporting and accurate invoicing Scoring Matrix (Quality) Score Classification Description 5 Excellent Comprehensive response; exceeds requirements; provides high added value. 4 Good Solid response; addresses all requirements with good evidence. 3 Satisfactory Meets requirements but lacks innovation or specific detail. 2 Poor Lacks detail or evidence in several key areas. 1 Unsatisfactory Minimal response; fails to address core requirements. 0 Non-Compliant No response provided or completely fails to meet the brief. 3. Price Evaluation (60% Weighting) The financial evaluation will be based on the Pricing Schedule Template. To ensure a fair comparison, the Trust will calculate a "Total Evaluated Price" based on: 1. Fixed Costs: Total annual rental of all containers. 2. Variable Costs: Total annual lift costs based on the frequencies in the Schedule of Services. 3. Ad-Hoc Allowance: A basket of common ad-hoc services (e.g., bin cleaning, overweight charges) Calculation Formula: The lowest total price will receive the full 60%. Other bidders will be scored using the following relative formula: Score = Lowest Price/Bidder price x 60% Interested parties should submit their bid using the attached Selection & Questionnaire document
