"weightingDescription": "The evaluation of Stage 1 and 2 of this quotation will be based on a pass/fail basis and Stage 3 and 4 being Value Assessment approach that enables the Council to assess a quotation on Quality (80%) and Price (20%). The assessment of Quality will consider written information provided by the quotation provider in relation to the specific requirements as set out in the quotation documents. All relevant evidence submitted will be assessed/merit rated against pre-determined criteria. Selection Criteria Stages 1 & 2 = Pass/Fail Stage 3 = Quality Response Stage 4 = Price Summary General Information Company Information - Not Scored Statement of Insurance Cover - Pass/Fail References at least one reference required - Pass/Fail After initial due diligence and the potential supplier information recorded, the responses to ALL Pass/Fail questions will be assessed centrally by officer(s) prior to being distributed to the full evaluation team for assessment of the 'scored' questions. The Council reserves the right to exclude any potential suppliers where a response is assessed as \"Fail.\" Previous Experience Potential Suppliers will be asked to demonstrate their previous experience which will enable them to deliver the requirements of the contract effectively. This will be evaluated on a Pass / Fail basis. Evaluation Criteria Quality Response A) Understanding the challenge, understanding the place, using an effective approach, designing the stakeholder engagement 40% B) Interpreting the findings, developing the Regeneration Plan, creating effective communication resources, making it a 'living document' 25% C) Your Organisation; resources, what your expertise and experience bring to this project, your understanding of the risks and mitigation around project delivery 25% D) Management; CVs for your key team members who will be directly involved, time breakdown between project elements 10% Quality will account for 80% of the quotation evaluation. The quality assessment will be carried out on the quality questions/method statements. After rejecting bids that in the opinion of the Council are unrealistically low (in terms of Quality), the highest Quality score will be given 100 for Quality. Other Quality scores will then be expressed as a proportion of the highest score. This gives the adjusted Quality score. The % weighting for Quality is then applied to each adjusted Quality score to give the Weighted Quality Scores. Potential Suppliers who score more than 60% of the quality marks (i.e. 60 marks out of 100) may be invited to attend a clarification interview to discuss points included in the written proposals. The points discussed may result in scores being adjusted either up or down. The Council reserves the right to disqualify any potential supplier which: * Fails to achieve a 'Pass' in respect of a 'Pass/Fail' criteria question. * Achieves a score below a 60% threshold in terms of quality (60 marks out of 100) * Zero in any one section * Zero / no response in any one scored question * Is submitted in whole or in part after the deadline. Price Summary Price/Value for Money 20% The lowest price score will be 100 for Price. Other Price scores will then be expressed as a proportion of the lowest score. This gives an adjusted Price score. The % weighting for Price is then applied to each adjusted Price score to give the Weighted Price Scores. Overall Assessment The Weighted Quality Score and Price Score for each quotation will be added to produce a total score. The scores for each quotation will be compared and (Subject to a final risk assessment) the quotation providers with the highest score offering the most economically advantageous bid will be recommended for acceptance.",
