The purpose of this guidance is to assist the Procuring Authority in carrying out quantitative analysis to determine whether the preferred procurement route will deliver best VfM.
The evaluation model will assist Procuring Authorities to ensure that best value is achieved, and provide an audit trail of the VfM implications of a project throughout the procurement process.
This guidance sets out the quantitative models used in the VfM assessment and provides advice on the contents of the CPAM and the shadow bid models.
