(Required)
Delivering value for money
Maximising public benefit
Sharing information for the purpose of allowing suppliers and other to understand the authority’s procurement policies and decisions
Acting and being seen to act with integrity

(Required)

Clause 18 of the Bill introduces a new competitive regime and provides that a contracting authority may award a public contract to the supplier that submits the most advantageous tender. This method of evaluation replaces the existing standard (under the PCR 2015), which is referred to as the most economically advantageous tender. True or False? This means that a contracting authority may reject a tender that is more economically advantageous. (5 points)
(Required)
True, a contracting authority may reject a more economically advantageous tender but only on the basis that it is from a supplier not based in the UK.
False, the most advantageous always equates to the most economically advantageous.
To be determined.
The Bill reduces the number of award procedures. There were five procedures under the PCR 2015, how many are there under the Bill? (5 Points)
(Required)

(Required)
At least once every 3 months during the life cycle of the contract and on termination of the contract.
At least once every 6 months during the life cycle of the contract and on termination of the contract.
At least once every 12 months during the life cycle of the contract and on termination of the contract.
