What's inside

How to use it

1

Set weights before bids arrive

Decide what matters while you are still neutral. Weights set after reading bids are justifications, not criteria.

2

Score independently, then compare

If several people evaluate, score separately and discuss the gaps. Convergence by discussion beats anchoring.

3

Keep the sheet

The completed scorecard is your award record. When anyone asks why this supplier won, this is the answer.
