Bidders who submitted a bid over the maximum contract values in the procurement documents, were not to achieve the score of a pass.

Their bid was to be regarded as non-compliant and be a failed bid and the rest of the bid would be rejected and the scoring questions in each lot would not be evaluated.

This was checked during the preliminary stages of the evaluation during the compliance checks.

There was not a competition on price.
