Published award criteria (3)
- quality: 80
- price: 20
- Price: 80% quality/20% price
- 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.
