How the score was worked out
Weights set in procurement settings · out of 100| Criterion · weight | Prime | BuildMart | Floor Art |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price 50% | 97.6 | 93.4 | 100 |
| Delivery 20% | 90 | 100 | 20 |
| Credit 15% | 100 | 100 | 0 |
| Track record 15% | 86 | 78 | 40 |
| Score | 94.7 | 93.4 | 60.0 |
Why not the cheapest?
Floor Art saves AED 240 but delivers a week after the site needed it. A week of the flooring crew waiting costs far more than AED 240, and cash payment loses the 30 days of credit.
