Technical requirements: Hampshire County Council's Infrastructure Procurement team have issued this Contract Notice on behalf of Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service (HFRS). The purpose of this notice is to alert the market to HFRS intentions of establishing a Framework Agreement whereby deployment of scrap vehicles may take place by directly calling-off and placing an Order for services as and when required.
Currently Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service operates a local arrangement with local contractors within Hampshire. The annual usage of scrap vehicles for training aids is approximately 550. Details of potential future uptake are given in good faith as a guide to past purchasing and current planning to assist Tenderers in submitting their tenders. They should not be interpreted as an undertaking to purchase any goods or services to any particular value and do not form part of the Framework Agreement.
The Framework Agreement is due to commence on 11.9.2017. The Framework Agreement will be for a term of 2 years with the option to extend in annual increments until 10.9.2021. HFRS may enter into a direct award with the Contractor/s during the term of the Framework Agreement by following the Call Off Procedure as detailed in the Framework Agreement.
Following evaluation of compliant tenders and approval of the outcome, Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service intends to appoint successful Contractor/s under a cascading Framework Agreement to provide the services detailed. Contractors will be appointed using a cascade system i.e. contractors will be ranked (per fire station) according to the price submitted for one vehicle (per fire station) within their tender return. For example, the lowest price submitted per fire station will be ranked number 1, with other contractors being ranked subsequently in 2nd and 3rd position etc. in relation to the price they have submitted. The successful Contractor ranked in 1st position (per Fire Station) will be requested to offer to supply HFRS with scrap vehicles first, if they are unable to supply the desired need at the time, subsequent ranked Contractors (2nd, 3rd ranked Contractors) will be contacted to identify if they can meet HFRS requirements. When there are multiple vehicle requirements per fire station IE: Eastleigh HQ, prices submitted will be ranked per multiple option. Further information is detailed in the tender documentation.
In accordance with Articles 57 — 62 of Directive 2014/24/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, and set out in the Tender documentation.
The economic and financial standing of Tenderers will not be assessed as part of the selection criteria.
Please see the questionnaire within the In-Tend procurement portal for further details regarding the technical and professional requirements.
As set out in the Pubic Contracts Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council.
