Framework details

When entering into contracts from the Framework Agreement, the Council will use the call-off terms and conditions included as a Schedule to the Terms and Conditions of Contract in accordance with the Framework Agreement. Each time the Council has a requirement it will either: • directly award a contract to one supplier from information supplied in this Invitation to Tender and from the prices submitted in the price schedule (“Direct Award”) or • hold a competition involving all suppliers capable of performing the contract. This will involve inviting bids from Suppliers on the framework and will be scaled to the size and complexity of the requirement (“Further Competition”) It is anticipated that most contracts will be directly awarded. Users of the framework will be able to refine, but not fundamentally alter, the criteria specified below. Each framework user will be able to decide what percentage of marks it wants to allocate to each of the evaluation criteria, within the maximum and minimum amounts allowed. The award criteria for further competitions will be set within the ranges indicated in the table below: The Service Can be between 10% and 70% and is to be determined at further competition Social Value Can be between 0% and 20% and is to be determined at further competition Team availability Can be between 0% and 30% and is to be determined at further competition Quality Can be between 10% and 70% and and is to be determined at further competition Price Can be between 30% and 70% and is to be determined at further competition The Council reserves the right for users of the framework to conduct a Direct Award process in addition to the further competition route, where the requirement can clearly be met through information supplied in their submitted Invitation to Tender by a single Supplier. Direct Awards will be made based on the information supplied in Applicants’ responses to the Invitation to Tender and from the prices submitted in the price schedule, and will take in to account: • The services offered in the Invitation to Tender aligned with the specific requirement • The price(s) quoted in the Price Schedule • Where relevant, locality • Experience of the team relevant to the claim • Team availability • Any capacity constraints indicated within the framework tender response. Where a Provider is unable to fulfil the requirement at direct contract award, the next most appropriate Provider will be awarded the contract. Prices quoted by bidders may be used for direct award of contract. Prices quoted by the appointed suppliers in their tenders is the maximum they will be able to charge throughout the term of the framework, unless otherwise indicated in the terms and conditions of contract. There is no guarantee of work under this framework agreement.
