Conditions of participation1
  • Suitability

    Organisations must ensure that they are not in breach of any of the mandatory or discretionary exclusions contained in Regulation 57 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Please refer to the Tender Documentation/Online Tender located on our E-Procurement system. The web address can be found under ‘Procurement Documents’ in the ‘Communication’ section of this notice.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 4 points.
  • “YPO - 001081 Decorative Paints and Sundries” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

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