Weighting description
The ITT stage will be based on a Total Value Offering (TVO), which will involve evaluating suppliers based on a comprehensive assessment of both cost and non-cost factors, rather than focusing solely on the lowest initial price. This approach will consider elements such as quality, lifecycle costs, sustainability, supplier reliability, innovation, risk management, and service responsiveness.
