The Buyer’s clients will purchase items or services from the Framework via direct call off or via mini-competition.\nThe Buyer will select a supplier associated within the relevant Lot on the Framework (appointed on the basis of the criteria set out in the Call for Tender), who is considered to best meet their operational and technical requirements, considering some or all of the following criteria:\n•\tPrice\n•\tAvailability\n•\tDelivery lead time\n•\tCompatibility\n•\tContinuity of Requirements\n•\tProduct Characteristics\n•\tAny other reason based on the Buyer’s specific requirements\nAll Core List products in the Awarded Lots and sub-Lots will be added to the Buyer's P2P platform.\nThere will also be the opportunity to engage all suppliers in a specific Lot for a Mini-competition process for circumstances such as bulk requirements or any other situation where pricing efficiencies are anticipated. Any mini-competition will be awarded on the basis of the Most Advantageous Tender (MAT) to the Supplier who is the highest scoring, compliant Supplier following the process of Mini-competition. For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer will not be required to use the Mini-competition route for bulk requirements and may opt to use a direct call-off option at their own discretion. Any mini-competition will be based on 100% price, however there may be a requirement for additional mandatory criteria specific to individual projects, for example supply / delivery / installation by a specified time / date. For the avoidance of doubt, there is no obligation on the Buyer to conduct mini-competition for requirements in excess of £10k within a Lot, however, the Buyer may do this should they envisage mini-competition could deliver better value for money.\nFor the avoidance of doubt, in the event a mini-competition is required for any equipment under one of the sub-lots of Lot 2, the mini-competition will be completed on a Lot basis (inviting all the Suppliers from the Lot), rather than a sub-lot basis.\nTo note, the Framework includes Lots for both Supplies and Services - the Tender Documents held on eTendersNI include a 06a Short Form Supplies Framework Agreement which is intended to be used for Lots 1 and 2 only, and an 06b Short Form Services Framework Agreement which is intended to be used for Lots 3 and 4 only." } ] } }, "lots": [ { "id": "1", "suitability": { "sme": [ { "releaseID": "031207-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-04-03T16:06:04+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "planning" ], "value": true } ] }, "contractPeriod": { "startDate": [ { "releaseID": "031207-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-04-03T16:06:04+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "planning" ], "value": "2026-10-07T00:00:00+01:00" }, { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "2027-02-07T00:00:00+00:00" } ], "endDate": [ { "releaseID": "031207-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-04-03T16:06:04+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "planning" ], "value": "2030-10-06T23:59:59+01:00" }, { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "2031-02-06T23:59:59+00:00" } ] }, "status": [ { "releaseID": "031207-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-04-03T16:06:04+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "planning" ], "value": "planning" }, { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "active" } ], "title": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Sports Equipment" } ], "description": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Lot 1 is for the supply and delivery of Sports Equipment." } ], "value": { "amountGross": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": 6480000 } ], "amount": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": 5400000 } ], "currency": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "GBP" } ] }, "awardCriteria": { "criteria": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": [ { "type": "price", "name": "Price", "numbers": [ { "number": 100, "weight": "percentageExact" } ] } ] } ] } }, { "id": "2", "title": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Fitness Equipment" } ], "description": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Lot 2 is for the supply, delivery, installation and commissioning of Fitness Equipment" } ], "status": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "active" } ], "value": { "amountGross": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": 2520000 } ], "amount": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": 2100000 } ], "currency": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "GBP" } ] }, "awardCriteria": { "criteria": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": [ { "type": "price", "name": "Price", "numbers": [ { "number": 100, "weight": "percentageExact" } ] } ] } ] }, "suitability": { "sme": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": true } ] }, "contractPeriod": { "startDate": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "2027-02-07T00:00:00+00:00" } ], "endDate": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "2031-02-06T23:59:59+00:00" } ] } }, { "id": "3", "title": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Maintenance of Gymnasium Equipment" } ], "description": [ { "releaseID": "084012-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-09-04T15:32:01+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Lot 3 is for the maintenance of gymnasium equipment.
