EVALUATION CRITERIA

Instructions for Tenderers

The following information forms an evaluation criterion which is to be used to assist the Council in awarding the licence.

In evaluating the quotations / tenders consideration will be given to the following;

1. Quality of Greenhouses 2. Price of Greenhouses

As a tenderer you are given the opportunity to add any additional relevant information to the categories listed, which you feel would support your returned tender. We would welcome options to your specification.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY - STANDARD EVALUATION TABLE - TENDERS

The following table is to be completed for each returned tender by the relevant evaluating officer - a judgement is to be made against each category on how each tender and tenderers compares. For example, if a tender is considered to be "Good" on Tender Price, then this would score 24, which should be put into the total column on the right. The same logic must then be applied for all remaining categories. These totals should then be added up to give the final score. The highest total score (out of 100) should demonstrate the tender which is most likely to achieve the requirements of the Council based on whole cost and value for money considerations.
