The weighted score for each question is calculated as follows: E.G. A question carries a weighing of 10% (maximum score allowed = 4), the actual score given is 3. To work out the weighted score: Actual Score Multiplied by Question Weighting Divided by Maximum Possible Score equals Weighted Score 3 x 10 ÷ 4 = 7.50% Failure to upload your quantitative response to the Social Value Portal by the deadline will result in your Quotation being excluded and your Quotation will not be assessed further.

Scoring Methodology (Quality): The following scoring methodology will be used for scoring your responses to the quality questions. The following scores shall be awarded based on the proposals received and the degree of confidence that, on the basis of the facts known to the evaluation panel at the time of making the assessment, the proposal meets the interpretation of the applicable score.
