Contract for the Design, Supply and Installation of ICT Infrastructure Services and Systems and Related Support, Maintenance and Consultancy Services
Cartrefi Conwy Cyfyngedig Ltd (the “Authority") is seeking to appoint a single service provider to provide design, supply, installation, commissioning and related consultancy services to support and maintain the Authority's ICT infrastructure services and systems.
The Authority is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced service providers to deliver a contract (the “Contract”) to provide a solution (the “Solution”) undertake the design, supply and installation of the Authority's ICT infrastructure services and systems and related support, maintenance and consultancy services (together, the “Services"). A full specification of the services for the procurement is set out in the Technical Statement of Requirements document (“TSoR”) which is available from the Portal address above.
The Authority intends to shortlist up to 5 applicants to respond to an Invitation to Submit Outline Solutions document (“ISOS"). Following the evaluation of the ISOS document, the authority will further shortlist 3 tenderers to participate in structured dialogue sessions, in which the Authority will discuss separately with each participant the scope of the services (including the provision of any optional services as described above) and each participant's proposed solution for delivering the services.
The successful service provider will enter into a bespoke contract with the Authority for an initial period of three (3) years with an option at the Authority's sole discretion to extend by a further period of one (1) year on two (2) occasions, giving a total possible term of five (5) years (“the Term”). The anticipated value of the contract is estimated at between 750 000 GBP and 1 000 000 GBP excluding VAT over a 5-year Term.
The successful service provider will enter into a bespoke contract with the Authority for an initial period of three (3) years with an option at the Authority's sole discretion to extend by a further period of one (1) year on two (2) occasions, giving a total possible term of five (5) years (“the Term”).
The Authority anticipates that the Business Transfers Directive 2001/23/EC as implemented by the Transfer of undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 will apply to the transfer of personnel from the incumbent service provider under this tender exercise. The detailed requirements in respect of any TUPE transfer will be set out in the proposed terms and conditions of contract, which will be provided to tenderers later in the tender process.
The Authority reserves the right not to award any contract pursuant to this procurement exercise and/or to abandon this procurement exercise at any time and/or to award a contract for part of the services at its sole discretion. The Authority shall have no liability whatsoever to any applicant or tenderer as a result of its exercise of that discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, all costs incurred by any applicant and/or tenderer before signature of any contract with the Authority shall be incurred entirely at that applicant's or tenderer's risk.
The Contracting Authority will observe a standstill period following the award of the contract and conduct itself in respect of any appeals in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
