Photo: SpotOn / Unsplash [Département de la Loire](https://giftcard.news/organization/departement-de-la-loire/) concluded its staff gift-card contract with [LUNCHR](https://giftcard.news/company/lunchr/) on September 4, 2026, according to the BOAMP award notice published September 17\. The arrangement covers the issue, management and distribution of reloadable chip cards carrying gift allocations for eligible staff events. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-1) ## The evaluation gave technical delivery more weight than price Technical value accounted for 55% of the published evaluation, price for 30% and environmental and social performance for 15%. Each criterion was assessed on a 20-point scale before its weighting was applied. The breakdown shows that operating the card service and its delivery conditions were central to the purchasing decision; it does not disclose the winning supplier’s individual criterion scores. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-1) [\[S02\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-2) The data behind the story ### Technical quality carried the largest evaluation weight Published award criteria for Loire’s reloadable staff gift-card procurement. Evaluation weight % Tap or hover for details. All values are also available in the data table. Sources Département de la Loire, consultation and award notices; Buyer consultation notice, evaluation criteria Weights describe the evaluation method, not the supplier’s actual scores or the allocation of contract spending. Each criterion was assessed on a 20-point scale before weighting.

The procurement describes a reusable instrument for recurring benefits. It does not publish a single denomination or a measured total of cards already distributed. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-1) [\[S02\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-2) The notice’s narrative specifies a single-provider purchasing framework with no minimum and a EUR 500,000 ceiling excluding VAT. The EUR 452,000 figure is a separate procurement estimate. These figures should not be read as revenue already earned, a guaranteed purchase or funds already loaded onto cards. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-1) [\[S02\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-2) [\[S03\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-3) One offer was recorded. The award notice says the arrangement takes effect upon notification and runs until March 19, 2028\. The September 1 date in the consultation was a forecast start; the later September 4 contract conclusion does not establish when staff received or spent their benefits. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-1) [\[S03\]](https://giftcard.news/gift-cards/loire-lunchr-reloadable-staff-gift-card-contract/#article-source-3) The official result fields contain zero monetary entries and an inconsistent framework label, while the accompanying narrative explicitly sets the EUR 500,000 maximum. Those discrepancies remain in the source and do not establish a free contract. The buyer’s archive also directs readers to request access to the contract through its designated public-records contact; the expired consultation page no longer exposes the detailed consultation files.
