<li>Award Criteria are used to evaluate Tenders. They may include the best price-quality ratio, including qualitative, environmental and/or social aspects, linked to the subject-matter of the public contract in question.</li><li>Thus, an Award Criterion needs to be codified as lowest, most economic tender, mixed or other (for non-objective / qualitative criteria - see Criteria Taxonomy).</li><li>In two-phase procedures technical and financial criteria, used in the first phase for the selection, can be reused as weighted criteria to evaluate the Tenders.</li><li>Award Criterion is a class that specialises Criterion. The specialisation consists in providing a property to link the Criterion to Lot.</li><li>Award Criterion and Award Criterion Property, both need to link to Lot.</li><li>This is why the class Award Criterion needs to provide specialised sub-classes for the Criterion Property Group and Criterion Property, as well as the properties linking them.</li></ol>
