two.1.4) Short description

This procurement process is being conducted under the Restricted Procedure pursuant to Regulation 28 of the Public Contracts Regulations as amended ('PCR 2015').

The suite of TfL Professional Services Frameworks 3 is TfL's and its Group Companies', Greater London Authority and its Functional Bodies and all London Boroughs, primary means of accessing professional services (engineering, planning and project management support, commercial etc) and expertise from the external supply chain.

In line with its Commercial Strategy, TfL has a Category Management approach for replacing the current Professional Services Framework 2. Fundamental to the success of the programme is ensuring that the intended users have access to the necessary technical and specialist skills and services to meet their requirements.

The vision for the new suite of Frameworks includes higher service provision, reduced costs and greater value for money based on key strategic objectives.

This notice is for the Framework from the suite of Professional Services Frameworks 3 - the Project & Programme Management and Commercial Services Framework.

This Framework will cover the following services:

Project and Programme Management Services - Project Management, PMO Services, Portfolio Management, Planning and Scheduling, Risk Management, Assurance Services.

Commercial Services - Procurement, Quantity Surveying, Estimating and Cost Intelligence.

The framework agreement will be for a duration of three (3) years, with an option to extend for up to a further (1) year; the option to execute any extension, and the increments by which this is exercised, will be at TfL's sole discretion.

seven.2) Other additional information

Please be advised that Lot A2 Programme Office and Project Controls and Planning and Scheduling will now read as 2 separate lots and not the one with sub - lots:

Lot A2: Programme Office and Project Controls

Lot A5: Planning and Scheduling

This is clearly detailed in the Procurement Documents and is a technical correction. No changes have been made to the content of the requirements. The following Lot Description will therefore be included within Lot A5 Planning and Scheduling and removed from Lot A2 Programme Office and Project Controls:

Planning involves how the programmes/project plans are executed, monitored and controlled, and closed. In order to create the plan, the process of scheduling is used to determine the overall project duration and when activities and events are planned to happen. This includes identification of a sequence of works and activities and their logical dependencies, estimation of durations and taking into account availability of resource.
