Bidders must refer to the specific requirements listed in the Section III in this Contract Notice when completing the tender in PCS-T. Lot 1: It is proposed this procurement will be conducted through the use of the Open Procedure. The evaluation will be contain three stages as follows. Stage 1 - the SPD (Scotland) will include a series of Minimum Standards in relation to mandatory and discretionary criteria which govern the public sector and this specific requirement. These are pass/fail requirements and failure to provide adequate evidence on request of how these requirements shall be met will result in automatic exclusion from the Tendering process. Each Bidder passing the Minimum Standards will then be subject to a technical and commercial evaluation. Stage 2 – Technical questions are allocated a total weighting of 80 percent. 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. Stage 3 – Commercial (Price) shall be allocated a total weighting of 20 percent. The bidder who submits the lowest price will be awarded the maximum score (20 percent) and all other bids awarded a score pro rata, in relation to the lowest bid. Both Technical and Commercial scores will be added together at the end of the evaluation process to calculate the most economically advantageous tender.
