Options: The duration of the contract has 2 alternatives which are: * 5 year contract + 2 year possible extensions * 7 year contract + 3 year possible extensions Price Evaluations: The scoring is carried out within an Excel spread sheet outside of the e-tender system. The equations used outside of the system to reach the score between 0 - 5 are as follows: (for purposes of explanation, the outcome of each calculation is show below as sum A, sum B, etc.) Stage 1 All price bids are compared against lowest bid to reach percentage difference from lowest bid. Equation: price bid - lowest bid / lowest bid * 100 = Sum A Stage 2 Sum A is then shown as % different from 100 Equation: 100 - Sum A = Sum B Stage 3 Sum B is then divided by 100 to show it as a figure Equation: Sum B / 100 = Sum C Stage 4 Sum C is then multiplied by the maximum score of 5 to reach the final score Equation: Sum C * 5 The final score is then entered into the Score Card and will be within 2 x decimal places, e.g., 3.50. No minus scores can be entered into the Score Card therefore any minus scores will be entered as 0.
