Bids: discount percentage #1706

Open yolile opened 1 week ago

In Brazil, there is an award criterion called "Maior desconto" (Biggest discount) and they have a "discountPercentage" field that is used to indicate the discount percentage proposed by a supplier when the awardCriteria is “Biggest discount”.

The bids extension only allows us to disclose a bid/details/value, for this case we would need a different field for the percentage, for now, we might use bids/details/description but recording the issue in case this also exists in other jurisdictions

I'm not clear on the semantics. Do they provide a (discounted) value, and then also indicate how much of a discount it is compared to their regular price?

Edit: In terms of modelling, this sounds a bit like selection criteria and requirement responses from CCCEV (and the requirements extension) – except this is instead for award criteria.

After reading the legislation, in this type of award, the bidders must submit their bids proposing a discount based on the tender items' referential prices. I guess we could use the regular bid/details/amount field and just calculate how much the amount would be with the discount applied.
