The Council's intention is to enter into a Framework Agreement with 5 Provider/s, unless fewer than this number of tenders are received.
The Employer has sole responsibility and discretion for determining the scope of individual projects and for assessing their value. The Employer will allocate the work on a rotational basis. Contractors will price the work using their tendered prices/rates as set out in Annex 6. Call-Off Contracts are offered in strict rotation to Framework Contractors. A ‘Round’ is complete once each eligible Framework Contractor has been offered a Call-Off Contract (whether or not they have accepted such offer).
Upon entry into this Framework Agreement, each Framework Contractor will be allocated a number from 1 to 5 in each case corresponding to their ranking following evaluation of their Framework Tender Submissions.
The first Call-Off Contract will be offered to the first-placed Framework Contractor. Subsequent Call-Off Contracts will then be offered to the lower-placed Framework Contractors in accordance with the order of their ranking. Once a Call-Off Contract has been offered to the lowest-placed Framework Contractor, a Round is complete and the process begins again with the next Call-off Contract being offered to the first-placed Framework Contractor, and so on.
For the avoidance of doubt, if a Framework Contractor refuses or fails to accept the offer of a Call-Off Contract, the next Call-Off Contract in the current Round will not be offered to that Framework Contractor but will be offered to the next Framework Contractor below them which has not yet been offered a Call-Off Contract in the current Round. A Framework Contractor who refuses or fails to accept an offer of a Call-Off Contract will not be offered another Call-Off Contract until the next Round.
The Council does however reserve the right, at any time and at its sole discretion, to run in a mini comp for projects/works with a value of up to 10000. Such mini competition shall be run in accordance with the provisions set out below.
All Mini competition will be conducted using 100 % price. For all projects with an estimated value of 10001 and over a mini competition will be conducted where all contractors will be invited to participate. The Employer will prepare a works package that will include all relevant specifications, drawings and a bill of quantities for the call off project and will issue to all contractors to price. The submitted bill of quantities will be checked and contractors will be ranked when considered in conjunction with all other bids received. In cases where a Framework Contractor who ranks higher on the mini competition is unable or unwilling to perform the works, the Employer may select the next highest ranked contractor and so on.
