Add requirements, documents and evaluation criteria

Requirements

Open the draft tender and add requirements in the Requirements section. Each line can be Mandatory, Desirable or Info, and you can mark a line Proof required so suppliers must attach a file.

Documents

Upload your specification, pricing schedule and any other files in Documents. Uploads are scanned for malware, and each version is kept.

Evaluation criteria

1. In Evaluation, press Edit criteria.
2. Add each criterion with a Weight %, and choose Score 0-5 or Score 0-10. Add guidance and the evidence you expect if it helps evaluators.
3. Tick Scored on price on one criterion. It is scored automatically from each bid's total: the lowest compliant price gets full marks.
4. Make sure the Total is 100%, then press Save criteria.

Weightings must add up to 100% or the tender can't be published.

Evaluation team

In Evaluation team, choose your Evaluators and the Award approver. You can only change this while the tender is in draft.
