This approach ensures that quality, safety, and environmental impact are balanced against financial cost. The evaluation will be weighted as follows: * Quality (Technical & Environmental): 40% * Price (Commercial): 60% 1. Mandatory Requirements (Pass/Fail) Bidders must meet these criteria to proceed to the scoring phase: * Licensing: Valid Waste Carrier's License. * Certification: ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) or equivalent. * Sector Experience: Evidence of managing at least two education sector contracts of similar size/complexity. * Safeguarding: DBS clearance for all site-facing personnel. * Availability: Capability to provide year-round Saturday collections. 2. Quality & Technical Evaluation (40%) Bidders will be scored based on their responses in the Selection Questionnaire (SQ). The 40% Quality score is broken down into the following sub-criteria: Criteria Weighting Focus Areas Operational Reliability 25% Ability to meet the pre-08:30 weekday and pre-10:00 Saturday deadlines. Methodology for maintaining a 98% collection success rate and resolving issues within 5 hours. Safety & Safeguarding 10% Commitment to the \"zero-harm\" environment. Use of vehicles with 360-degree cameras and audible alarms. Adherence to strict site protocols (brakes engaged, bin stores locked). Data Transparency 5% Provision of granular, weigh-scale accurate data for every collection to support carbon footprint reporting and accurate invoicing Scoring Matrix (Quality) Score Classification Description 5 Excellent Comprehensive response; exceeds requirements; provides high added value. 4 Good Solid response; addresses all requirements with good evidence. 3 Satisfactory Meets requirements but lacks innovation or specific detail. 2 Poor Lacks detail or evidence in several key areas. 1 Unsatisfactory Minimal response; fails to address core requirements. 0 Non-Compliant No response provided or completely fails to meet the brief. 3. Price Evaluation (60% Weighting) The financial evaluation will be based on the Pricing Schedule Template. To ensure a fair comparison, the Trust will calculate a \"Total Evaluated Price\" based on: 1. Fixed Costs: Total annual rental of all containers. 2. Variable Costs: Total annual lift costs based on the frequencies in the Schedule of Services. 3. Ad-Hoc Allowance: A basket of common ad-hoc services (e.g., bin cleaning, overweight charges) Calculation Formula: The lowest total price will receive the full 60%. Other bidders will be scored using the following relative formula: Score = Lowest Price/Bidder price x 60% Interested parties should submit their bid using the attached Selection & Questionnaire document"
