When completing the ESPD, bidders must have regard for the specific selection requirements detailed in Sections III of this OJEU Notice. The responses to these statements will be scored as per the scoring methodology detailed within the tender. We will take the required number of highest scoring bidders, scoring 50 percent and above, through to the Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage and they will be invited to submit a tender. Where the number of bidders meeting the selection criteria is below the minimum number, the University may continue the procedure by inviting the candidates with the required capabilities. In any event the number of candidates invited shall be sufficient to ensure genuine competition. Stage 2 - Invitation to Tender. The University will evaluate all shortlisted bidders ITT submissions via undertaking an 80 percent Technical and 20 percent Commercial evaluation. Technical (Quality) - Scores shall be allocated based on the total percentage achieved by the response out of the maximum possible percentage. This takes into account the score out of 4 and the weighting allocated to individual questions. For example if a question is weighted 10 percent and the submission scores 3 points out of 4 for that question then the score achieved will be 7.5 percent out of a possible 10 percent. Price - the bidder who submits the lowest cost will be awarded the maximum score (20 percent) and all other bids awarded a score pro rata, in relation to the lowest bid. The quality and commercial score will be combined to give each bidder an overall total score. The supplier with the highest total score will be deemed to have provided the most economical advantageous tender (MEAT).
