It ensures value for money by not focusing solely on lowest price but also considering critical quality factors, which is essential for this specialist refurbishment project. When calculating the quality-price ratio you simply divide the quality score by the price tendered. This gives you a figure that represents how many quality points the tenderer scored for each pound sterling that it intends to charge you.\nQuality Questions May Include:\n\u2022Contractor resource planning and availability\n\u2022Approach to managing risks and maintaining Aids to Navigation\n\u2022Past performance on similar projects\n\u2022Health and safety management"
