All successfully appointed bidders will be given details of a specific location and requirement and all will be given an opportunity to provide an offer.\n\u2022Further competitions will be assessed on a 20% price and 80% quality-based submission. The quality element of the submission will be evaluated against MSQ4 with adjustments made to size of area and areas of play that will be relevant to the project to be awarded and MSQ5 relating to the immediate local environment where the project is to occur. The weighting evaluations will then be split \noMSQ 4 - 65% \noMSQ 5 - 15% \n\u2022The successful bidder will be subject to further checks under the PA2023 Regulations to assess their continued ability to receive public funds by way of checking if they have become excluded or excludable. This will be undertaken by asking the successful bidder to confirm that their Central Digital Platform (CDP) status is up to date.
