Technical requirements: A national framework agreement with multiple suppliers for vehicle telematics provision to public sector organisations. The requirement is split into 2 lots; Lot 1 Hire of Vehicle Telematics and Associated Products and Services, Lot 2 Outright Purchase of Vehicle Telematics and Associated Products and Services. It is envisaged that most of the customers accessing the framework will have a requirement for a vehicle telematics system suitable for cars and light commercial vehicles. However, some customers may wish to use the framework to procure a telematics solution for their specialist vehicles, e.g. winter gritting vehicles, snow ploughs and refuse collection vehicles. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.
Lot 1 covers the hire of a Telematics system. The Customer shall pay a monthly hire price per vehicle which covers the supply, installation and maintenance of a data recording device and associated equipment, monthly service charge and all other products and services required by the Customer stated in the Contract.
The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated in Section II.1.7 includes the option period.
a) Outright purchase the data recording device and associated equipment and other required products and pay a monthly fee per vehicle for the service required during the contract term; or
b) Pay a lump sum to purchase the data recording device and associated equipment, and other products and services required, as well as pay upfront for the service required during the contract term.
The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated in Section II.1.7 includes the option period.
As a Central Purchasing Body as defined by the EU Procurement Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, the Framework Agreement is open for use by Public Bodies (defined: https://www.espo.org/ESPO/media/Documents/FAQs/ESPO-s_powers_to_trade__website_-2016-12-22.pdf) that also fall into one of the following classifications of user throughout all administrative regions of the UK: Local Authorities; Educational Establishments (including Academies); Central Government Departments and Agencies; Police, Fire and Rescue and Coastguard Emergency Services; NHS and HSC Bodies, including Ambulance Services; Registered Charities; Registered Social Landlords; or any public body established by or under the Scotland Act 1998 or any Act of the Scottish Parliament.
