Test your award model. Publish with confidence.

Simulate four fictional bids to see how price, quality and your formula determine the winner. Check that your model rewards what matters, then refine it before publication. After that, it’s locked in.

Make your formula reflect your priorities

The balance of price and quality determines which bid wins and what your organisation gets for its money. Make sure your formula and weightings reflect what matters for this contract. You can adjust them before publication; after that, the evaluation framework is fixed.

Spot unwanted outcomes before you publish

Create four fictional bids, each with a price and a quality score for every criterion. Tenpu ranks them using the same model as your live evaluation, with a clear breakdown of each score.

→

See how much price affects the result when bids offer similar quality at very different prices.

→

Check how price and quality each contribute to the total score.

→

Find out when a small difference is enough to change the winner.

Even with a 70% quality weighting, price can decide the outcome when quality scores are close. Adjust weightings, the formula or price limits. Tenpu instantly recalculates the same four fictional bids, so you can see whether each change has the intended effect.

01

Shift the quality-to-price ratio and see whether the winner changes.

02

Compare two formulas: the same bids, a different calculation and sometimes a different result.

03

Choose from commonly used scoring formulas. If your organisation uses another approach, we’ll configure it together.

Your award model works entirely with numbers. Evaluators interpret what a bidder has written; the formula calculates the points. Every simulation result comes from the settings and fictional bids you enter, so you can check every step of the calculation.

The model you test is the one that will rank the real bids. The formula and settings are recorded transparently, so the results can be reproduced. You can’t decide what bidders submit. You can understand exactly how your model will score it.

Tenpu does the maths. You decide.

Does the model do what you intend? Then the tender can be published. And then the questions will come.
