The Authority will release follow-up information relating to these events.\n5.\tProcurement Process\nPlease see document 'Brief Explanation of the Proposed Procurement Process'.\nPLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:\nPlease note that the PME does not oblige the Authority to proceed with any procurement process.\nWhilst all information shared and provided will be considered, this does not guarantee it will form part of the final procurement approach or document.\nYou may only provide the information you wish to provide. \nAny procurement conducted because of this PME will be advertised separately and all suppliers wanting to participate will need to respond to the advertisement (Tender Notice) as and when it is published, which will be no earlier than September 2026.\nYour response will have no influence on any assessment of any Tender you submit in relation to any future procurement process.\nParticipation in the PME process will be at each supplier's own cost. No expense in responding to this process will be reimbursed by the Authority.\n6.\tExclusion Grounds - Unfair advantage or distortion of competition\nThe Procurement Act 2023 requires the Authority to take steps to ensure that suppliers/suppliers or persons participating in the PME are not put at an unfair advantage and that competition in relation to the award of the contract is not otherwise distorted. \nIf the Authority considers that a supplier's participation in the PME has put a supplier at an unfair advantage in relation to the future award of the contract and that advantage cannot be avoided, it is possible that the supplier may be excluded from the procurement process. The Authority does not envisage that this will be an issue in this process, and you should not be deterred from participating in this PME process.\n7.\tTransparency\nThe Authority will keep a record of the information it has shared and received as part of the PME. \nThe Procurement Act 2023 requires that the Authority shares information, and therefore the PME information will be summarised and shared as part of the tendering process to help ensure that participating suppliers/suppliers are not unfairly advantaged or disadvantaged.\nThe information shared in the tendering process will focus on any factors that were material in deciding the Authority's procurement approach. It will not highlight any suppliers individual response to the PME.\n8.\tConfidentiality/Commercial Secrecy\nThe Authority reserves the right to disclose any information discussed as part of the PME unless otherwise agreed in writing, and subject to its obligations under the Procurement Act 2023, Freedom of Information Act 2000, and any other legislation governing the Authority. \nPlease consider in advance how we can manage any discussions involving confidential information including intellectual property. Any information you consider to be confidential information should be highlighted as such when it is made available to the Authority. \nYou will not make any public statement or press release in connection with the PME without prior written approval of the Authority.",

The Authority will release follow-up information relating to these events.\n5.\tProcurement Process\nPlease see document 'Brief Explanation of the Proposed Procurement Process'.\nPLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:\nPlease note that the PME does not oblige the Authority to proceed with any procurement process.\nWhilst all information shared and provided will be considered, this does not guarantee it will form part of the final procurement approach or document.\nYou may only provide the information you wish to provide.\nAny procurement conducted because of this PME will be advertised separately and all suppliers wanting to participate will need to respond to the advertisement (Tender Notice) as and when it is published, which will be no earlier than September 2026.\nYour response will have no influence on any assessment of any Tender you submit in relation to any future procurement process.\nParticipation in the PME process will be at each supplier's own cost. No expense in responding to this process will be reimbursed by the Authority.\n6.\tExclusion Grounds - Unfair advantage or distortion of competition\nThe Procurement Act 2023 requires the Authority to take steps to ensure that suppliers/suppliers or persons participating in the PME are not put at an unfair advantage and that competition in relation to the award of the contract is not otherwise distorted.\nIf the Authority considers that a supplier's participation in the PME has put a supplier at an unfair advantage in relation to the future award of the contract and that advantage cannot be avoided, it is possible that the supplier may be excluded from the procurement process. The Authority does not envisage that this will be an issue in this process, and you should not be deterred from participating in this PME process.\n7.\tTransparency\nThe Authority will keep a record of the information it has shared and received as part of the PME.\nThe Procurement Act 2023 requires that the Authority shares information, and therefore the PME information will be summarised and shared as part of the tendering process to help ensure that participating suppliers/suppliers are not unfairly advantaged or disadvantaged.\nThe information shared in the tendering process will focus on any factors that were material in deciding the Authority's procurement approach. It will not highlight any suppliers individual response to the PME.\n8.\tConfidentiality/Commercial Secrecy\nThe Authority reserves the right to disclose any information discussed as part of the PME unless otherwise agreed in writing, and subject to its obligations under the Procurement Act 2023, Freedom of Information Act 2000, and any other legislation governing the Authority.\nPlease consider in advance how we can manage any discussions involving confidential information including intellectual property. Any information you consider to be confidential information should be highlighted as such when it is made available to the Authority.\nYou will not make any public statement or press release in connection with the PME without prior written approval of the Authority.",

                        "description": "This is a procurement under the Competitive Flexible Procedure, not an Open Procedure.\nNottingham City Council is seeking Tenders from sufficiently experienced and qualified providers to establish a multi-Lot, multi-Supplier Open Framework of Homelessness Prevention Services (more commonly referred to as the Commissioned Homelessness Prevention System), consisting of two Lots:\nLot 1 - Accommodation Based Services (ABS), which provide accommodation, housing management and housing-related support.\nLot 2 - Community Based Services (CBS), which provide housing-related advice, outreach, prevention, resettlement or sustainment support outside a provider-owned accommodation setting.\nServices commissioned under Lot 1 may include the following, either as distinct services or as elements of a combined accommodation pathway:\na)\tEmergency and immediate access accommodation\nb)\tTemporary accommodation with support\nc)\tSupported accommodation\nd)\tSpecialist accommodation\ne)\tIntermediate and move-on accommodation\nf)\tHousing-led accommodation\nServices commissioned under Lot 2 may include the following, either as distinct services or as elements of a coordinated community-based pathway:\na)\tUniversal housing advice and access services\nb)\tTargeted early intervention\nc)\tHomelessness prevention and tenancy sustainment\nd)\tHousing options and resettlement support\ne)\tOutreach and in-reach\nf)\tRough sleeping prevention and street outreach\ng)\tSpecialist housing-related support and pathway coordination\nA Supplier can bid for any number of Lots and be successful in any number of Lots.\nThis Framework may also be used by other Authority departments including but not limited to Children, Adults and Public Health.\nThe Authority is seeking to put in place an Open Framework to establish the initial Framework and appoint one or more Framework Members in each Lot to deliver services. This Procurement is intended to set up a list of approved Framework Members for each Lot.  There is no limit to the number of Suppliers who can be Framework Members in each Lot. Call-off Award Procedures will then be conducted, and Call-off contracts will then be awarded.\nThis Procurement is a replacement for services previously tendered 'CPU3880 and CPU7231 - Framework for Community Based Support and Accommodation Based Services for homeless people (and those at risk of homelessness)'. It is important for Suppliers to note that if they are on the above Frameworks and wish to participate in future contract opportunities for this service, they will need to submit a response to this Procurement.\nThis is a light touch special regime Framework as per Sections 8 and 9 of the Procurement Act 2023. The process to be used will be the Competitive Flexible Procedure as per Section 20 of the Procurement Act 2023. \nWhere a Supplier fails the any stage as described below, their Tender will not be assessed any further:\n•\tStage  One - Initial Review of Tender Submission \n•\tStage Two - Procurement Specific Questionnaire Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Three - Quality Questions 1 and 2 Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Four - Quality Questions 3 to 6 Assessment Scored Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Five - Any required Final Qualification Check.\nRe-Opening\nThe Open Framework Mechanism allows the Authority to 're-open' the Framework to new Framework Members, while allow existing Framework members to also remain as Framework Members. The Authority reserves the right to re-open the Framework to new potential Framework Members when it deems it is required to ensure:\n•\tProcurement legislation is complied with.\n•\tCapacity requirements can be met.\n•\tTo ensure adequate competition in the Call-off Award Procedure.\n•\tTo meet needs that are not satisfied by current Framework Members.\n•\tOther reasons deemed reasonable by the Authority.\nThe Authority will post a Tender Notice on Find Tender Service/CDP when it re-opens the Framework for new Tender submissions.\nAs this Procurement is for a 'Light Touch Contract', the process and award of Call-off contracts may include some flexibilities permitted by the Special Regime of the Procurement Act (2023).\nSuppliers will be required to behave lawfully and ethically in sourcing Accommodation and in a manner that does not create additional Homelessness. The Authority reserves the right not to contract or proceed with Orders with any Suppliers where it is discovered this is not the case and the Authority reserves the right to no longer work with the Supplier in the future.\nConsideration of SME's\nSME's have been considered in the following ways:\n•\tAdvanced notice promoted via Pipeline Notice and PME notices.\n•\tReduced number of Lots so reduced Tendering requirements.\n•\tClear requirements for Conditions of Participation to make it clear the type of experience and capability required.\n•\tLonger than required Tender submission time provided.\n•\tNo insurance required at Framework stage. \n•\tLow liability cap amounts.\n•\tFramework can be re-opened for new Suppliers\nFramework Term\nThe first framework for a term of up to three years anticipated to start from 8 January 2027 to 31 December 2029 and a second framework for a term of up to a further five years from 1 January 2030 to 31 December 2034, subject to change depending on initial tendering length and termination clauses.\nThe actual Framework dates and number of Frameworks are indicative only, but the total Term is of all Frameworks added together is a maximum of eight years.\nIn the unlikely event that only one supplier is appointed to any individual Framework in the scheme of Frameworks during the open Framework Period then the maximum term for the Framework, and the open Framework, will be 4 years from the date on which the single supplier Framework is awarded.\nPME\nPre-Market was undertaken.\nA PME Pack is included in the Procurement Documents.\nThe summary of the conclusion of the PME is:\n•\tThe reduction of Lots to make tendering easier.\n•\tA framework mechanism to allow new Suppliers enter the framework.\n•\tSplit call-offs into smaller contracts where possible.\n•\tCase study type tender questions\nTender Modifications\nThe Authority reserves the right to:\n•\tRefine the Conditions of Participation Criteria\n•\tRefine/modify the Procurement process and/or terms\n•\tRefine the Award Criteria\n•\t'Roll' the Procurement to an appropriate previous stage\nClarifications\nAll questions/clarifications must be submitted via the Portal (more details below). Do not expect emails/calls to be responded to.\nAll Suppliers should access the 'Messages' section of the Portal on a regular basis to check for any clarifications issued on this project and/or any public exchange of information between interested parties, before final submission of their bid. It is the sole responsibility of Suppliers to do so.\nLGR\nLocal Government Reorganisation (LGR) is the process in which the structure and responsibilities of local authorities are reconfigured. The Government has set out plans to move away from the current two-tier system of county and district councils which are in place in some parts of county of Nottinghamshire and other parts of England.\nThe Authority has now received the Government's proposed decision regarding LGR in Nottinghamshire. However, there has been a pause in the LGR process so that Central Government can conduct a review. Due to the review there is some uncertainty over the exact timing of when (or if) any new structure will be implemented. The latest information is that the Authority will remain in their current format until at least April 2028.\nIt is considered the period of Agreements and Call-off Contracts under this Procurement is likely to be impacted by LGR, should this process be resumed. The current intention is that this Agreement / Call-off Contract would continue following any new structure implemented.\nAs a consequence of LGR, any resulting Agreement or Call Off Contract may be required to be transferred, assigned or novated (in whole or in part) to one or more successor authorities or other public bodies established as part of LGR, in accordance with applicable legislation.\nSuppliers acknowledge and accept that the Authority must comply with all statutory, regulatory and other legal requirements arising in connection with LGR and, to the extent necessary to do so, reserves the right to make such amendments to the procurement arrangements and/or any resulting Contract, Framework Agreement or Call Off Contract as are required or permitted by law.\nSuppliers must submit their Tender on the basis that such transfer, assignment, novation or amendment may occur and that no additional charges, price adjustments or termination rights shall arise solely as a result of LGR. Any reasonable steps taken by the Authority or a successor authority to notify Suppliers of matters arising from LGR shall be sufficient for the purposes of this procurement. \nEast Midlands Procurement Portal (the Portal)\nOnce the Tender Notice is published, Tender documents can be obtained from the East Midlands Procurement Portal at https://www.eastmidstenders.org/ by searching for CPU7343.

The Authority will release follow-up information relating to these events.\n5.\tProcurement Process\nPlease see document 'Brief Explanation of the Proposed Procurement Process'.\nPLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:\nPlease note that the PME does not oblige the Authority to proceed with any procurement process.\nWhilst all information shared and provided will be considered, this does not guarantee it will form part of the final procurement approach or document.\nYou may only provide the information you wish to provide.\nAny procurement conducted because of this PME will be advertised separately and all suppliers wanting to participate will need to respond to the advertisement (Tender Notice) as and when it is published, which will be no earlier than September 2026.\nYour response will have no influence on any assessment of any Tender you submit in relation to any future procurement process.\nParticipation in the PME process will be at each supplier's own cost. No expense in responding to this process will be reimbursed by the Authority.\n6.\tExclusion Grounds - Unfair advantage or distortion of competition\nThe Procurement Act 2023 requires the Authority to take steps to ensure that suppliers/suppliers or persons participating in the PME are not put at an unfair advantage and that competition in relation to the award of the contract is not otherwise distorted.\nIf the Authority considers that a supplier's participation in the PME has put a supplier at an unfair advantage in relation to the future award of the contract and that advantage cannot be avoided, it is possible that the supplier may be excluded from the procurement process. The Authority does not envisage that this will be an issue in this process, and you should not be deterred from participating in this PME process.\n7.\tTransparency\nThe Authority will keep a record of the information it has shared and received as part of the PME.\nThe Procurement Act 2023 requires that the Authority shares information, and therefore the PME information will be summarised and shared as part of the tendering process to help ensure that participating suppliers/suppliers are not unfairly advantaged or disadvantaged.\nThe information shared in the tendering process will focus on any factors that were material in deciding the Authority's procurement approach. It will not highlight any suppliers individual response to the PME.\n8.\tConfidentiality/Commercial Secrecy\nThe Authority reserves the right to disclose any information discussed as part of the PME unless otherwise agreed in writing, and subject to its obligations under the Procurement Act 2023, Freedom of Information Act 2000, and any other legislation governing the Authority.\nPlease consider in advance how we can manage any discussions involving confidential information including intellectual property. Any information you consider to be confidential information should be highlighted as such when it is made available to the Authority.\nYou will not make any public statement or press release in connection with the PME without prior written approval of the Authority.",

                    "description": "This is a procurement under the Competitive Flexible Procedure, not an Open Procedure.\nNottingham City Council is seeking Tenders from sufficiently experienced and qualified providers to establish a multi-Lot, multi-Supplier Open Framework of Homelessness Prevention Services (more commonly referred to as the Commissioned Homelessness Prevention System), consisting of two Lots:\nLot 1 - Accommodation Based Services (ABS), which provide accommodation, housing management and housing-related support.\nLot 2 - Community Based Services (CBS), which provide housing-related advice, outreach, prevention, resettlement or sustainment support outside a provider-owned accommodation setting.\nServices commissioned under Lot 1 may include the following, either as distinct services or as elements of a combined accommodation pathway:\na)\tEmergency and immediate access accommodation\nb)\tTemporary accommodation with support\nc)\tSupported accommodation\nd)\tSpecialist accommodation\ne)\tIntermediate and move-on accommodation\nf)\tHousing-led accommodation\nServices commissioned under Lot 2 may include the following, either as distinct services or as elements of a coordinated community-based pathway:\na)\tUniversal housing advice and access services\nb)\tTargeted early intervention\nc)\tHomelessness prevention and tenancy sustainment\nd)\tHousing options and resettlement support\ne)\tOutreach and in-reach\nf)\tRough sleeping prevention and street outreach\ng)\tSpecialist housing-related support and pathway coordination\nA Supplier can bid for any number of Lots and be successful in any number of Lots.\nThis Framework may also be used by other Authority departments including but not limited to Children, Adults and Public Health.\nThe Authority is seeking to put in place an Open Framework to establish the initial Framework and appoint one or more Framework Members in each Lot to deliver services. This Procurement is intended to set up a list of approved Framework Members for each Lot.  There is no limit to the number of Suppliers who can be Framework Members in each Lot. Call-off Award Procedures will then be conducted, and Call-off contracts will then be awarded.\nThis Procurement is a replacement for services previously tendered 'CPU3880 and CPU7231 - Framework for Community Based Support and Accommodation Based Services for homeless people (and those at risk of homelessness)'. It is important for Suppliers to note that if they are on the above Frameworks and wish to participate in future contract opportunities for this service, they will need to submit a response to this Procurement.\nThis is a light touch special regime Framework as per Sections 8 and 9 of the Procurement Act 2023. The process to be used will be the Competitive Flexible Procedure as per Section 20 of the Procurement Act 2023. \nWhere a Supplier fails the any stage as described below, their Tender will not be assessed any further:\n•\tStage  One - Initial Review of Tender Submission \n•\tStage Two - Procurement Specific Questionnaire Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Three - Quality Questions 1 and 2 Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Four - Quality Questions 3 to 6 Assessment Scored Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Five - Any required Final Qualification Check.\nRe-Opening\nThe Open Framework Mechanism allows the Authority to 're-open' the Framework to new Framework Members, while allow existing Framework members to also remain as Framework Members. The Authority reserves the right to re-open the Framework to new potential Framework Members when it deems it is required to ensure:\n•\tProcurement legislation is complied with.\n•\tCapacity requirements can be met.\n•\tTo ensure adequate competition in the Call-off Award Procedure.\n•\tTo meet needs that are not satisfied by current Framework Members.\n•\tOther reasons deemed reasonable by the Authority.\nThe Authority will post a Tender Notice on Find Tender Service/CDP when it re-opens the Framework for new Tender submissions.\nAs this Procurement is for a 'Light Touch Contract', the process and award of Call-off contracts may include some flexibilities permitted by the Special Regime of the Procurement Act (2023).\nSuppliers will be required to behave lawfully and ethically in sourcing Accommodation and in a manner that does not create additional Homelessness. The Authority reserves the right not to contract or proceed with Orders with any Suppliers where it is discovered this is not the case and the Authority reserves the right to no longer work with the Supplier in the future.\nConsideration of SME's\nSME's have been considered in the following ways:\n•\tAdvanced notice promoted via Pipeline Notice and PME notices.\n•\tReduced number of Lots so reduced Tendering requirements.\n•\tClear requirements for Conditions of Participation to make it clear the type of experience and capability required.\n•\tLonger than required Tender submission time provided.\n•\tNo insurance required at Framework stage. \n•\tLow liability cap amounts.\n•\tFramework can be re-opened for new Suppliers\nFramework Term\nThe first framework for a term of up to three years anticipated to start from 8 January 2027 to 31 December 2029 and a second framework for a term of up to a further five years from 1 January 2030 to 31 December 2034, subject to change depending on initial tendering length and termination clauses.\nThe actual Framework dates and number of Frameworks are indicative only, but the total Term is of all Frameworks added together is a maximum of eight years.\nIn the unlikely event that only one supplier is appointed to any individual Framework in the scheme of Frameworks during the open Framework Period then the maximum term for the Framework, and the open Framework, will be 4 years from the date on which the single supplier Framework is awarded.\nPME\nPre-Market was undertaken.\nA PME Pack is included in the Procurement Documents.\nThe summary of the conclusion of the PME is:\n•\tThe reduction of Lots to make tendering easier.\n•\tA framework mechanism to allow new Suppliers enter the framework.\n•\tSplit call-offs into smaller contracts where possible.\n•\tCase study type tender questions\nTender Modifications\nThe Authority reserves the right to:\n•\tRefine the Conditions of Participation Criteria\n•\tRefine/modify the Procurement process and/or terms\n•\tRefine the Award Criteria\n•\t'Roll' the Procurement to an appropriate previous stage\nClarifications\nAll questions/clarifications must be submitted via the Portal (more details below). Do not expect emails/calls to be responded to.\nAll Suppliers should access the 'Messages' section of the Portal on a regular basis to check for any clarifications issued on this project and/or any public exchange of information between interested parties, before final submission of their bid. It is the sole responsibility of Suppliers to do so.\nLGR\nLocal Government Reorganisation (LGR) is the process in which the structure and responsibilities of local authorities are reconfigured. The Government has set out plans to move away from the current two-tier system of county and district councils which are in place in some parts of county of Nottinghamshire and other parts of England.\nThe Authority has now received the Government's proposed decision regarding LGR in Nottinghamshire. However, there has been a pause in the LGR process so that Central Government can conduct a review. Due to the review there is some uncertainty over the exact timing of when (or if) any new structure will be implemented. The latest information is that the Authority will remain in their current format until at least April 2028.\nIt is considered the period of Agreements and Call-off Contracts under this Procurement is likely to be impacted by LGR, should this process be resumed. The current intention is that this Agreement / Call-off Contract would continue following any new structure implemented.\nAs a consequence of LGR, any resulting Agreement or Call Off Contract may be required to be transferred, assigned or novated (in whole or in part) to one or more successor authorities or other public bodies established as part of LGR, in accordance with applicable legislation.\nSuppliers acknowledge and accept that the Authority must comply with all statutory, regulatory and other legal requirements arising in connection with LGR and, to the extent necessary to do so, reserves the right to make such amendments to the procurement arrangements and/or any resulting Contract, Framework Agreement or Call Off Contract as are required or permitted by law.\nSuppliers must submit their Tender on the basis that such transfer, assignment, novation or amendment may occur and that no additional charges, price adjustments or termination rights shall arise solely as a result of LGR. Any reasonable steps taken by the Authority or a successor authority to notify Suppliers of matters arising from LGR shall be sufficient for the purposes of this procurement. \nEast Midlands Procurement Portal (the Portal)\nOnce the Tender Notice is published, Tender documents can be obtained from the East Midlands Procurement Portal at https://www.eastmidstenders.org/ by searching for CPU7343.

This Procurement is intended to set up a list of approved Framework Members for each Lot.  There is no limit to the number of Suppliers who can be Framework Members in each Lot. Call-off Award Procedures will then be conducted, and Call-off contracts will then be awarded.\nThis Procurement is a replacement for services previously tendered 'CPU3880 and CPU7231 - Framework for Community Based Support and Accommodation Based Services for homeless people (and those at risk of homelessness)'. It is important for Suppliers to note that if they are on the above Frameworks and wish to participate in future contract opportunities for this service, they will need to submit a response to this Procurement.\nThis is a light touch special regime Framework as per Sections 8 and 9 of the Procurement Act 2023. The process to be used will be the Competitive Flexible Procedure as per Section 20 of the Procurement Act 2023. \nWhere a Supplier fails the any stage as described below, their Tender will not be assessed any further:\n•\tStage  One - Initial Review of Tender Submission \n•\tStage Two - Procurement Specific Questionnaire Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Three - Quality Questions 1 and 2 Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Four - Quality Questions 3 to 6 Assessment Scored Pass/Fail \n•\tStage Five - Any required Final Qualification Check.\nRe-Opening\nThe Open Framework Mechanism allows the Authority to 're-open' the Framework to new Framework Members, while allow existing Framework members to also remain as Framework Members. The Authority reserves the right to re-open the Framework to new potential Framework Members when it deems it is required to ensure:\n•\tProcurement legislation is complied with.\n•\tCapacity requirements can be met.\n•\tTo ensure adequate competition in the Call-off Award Procedure.\n•\tTo meet needs that are not satisfied by current Framework Members.\n•\tOther reasons deemed reasonable by the Authority.\nThe Authority will post a Tender Notice on Find Tender Service/CDP when it re-opens the Framework for new Tender submissions.\nAs this Procurement is for a 'Light Touch Contract', the process and award of Call-off contracts may include some flexibilities permitted by the Special Regime of the Procurement Act (2023).\nSuppliers will be required to behave lawfully and ethically in sourcing Accommodation and in a manner that does not create additional Homelessness. The Authority reserves the right not to contract or proceed with Orders with any Suppliers where it is discovered this is not the case and the Authority reserves the right to no longer work with the Supplier in the future.\nConsideration of SME's\nSME's have been considered in the following ways:\n•\tAdvanced notice promoted via Pipeline Notice and PME notices.\n•\tReduced number of Lots so reduced Tendering requirements.\n•\tClear requirements for Conditions of Participation to make it clear the type of experience and capability required.\n•\tLonger than required Tender submission time provided.\n•\tNo insurance required at Framework stage. \n•\tLow liability cap amounts.\n•\tFramework can be re-opened for new Suppliers\nFramework Term\nThe first framework for a term of up to three years anticipated to start from 8 January 2027 to 31 December 2029 and a second framework for a term of up to a further five years from 1 January 2030 to 31 December 2034, subject to change depending on initial tendering length and termination clauses.\nThe actual Framework dates and number of Frameworks are indicative only, but the total Term is of all Frameworks added together is a maximum of eight years.\nIn the unlikely event that only one supplier is appointed to any individual Framework in the scheme of Frameworks during the open Framework Period then the maximum term for the Framework, and the open Framework, will be 4 years from the date on which the single supplier Framework is awarded.\nPME\nPre-Market was undertaken.\nA PME Pack is included in the Procurement Documents.\nThe summary of the conclusion of the PME is:\n•\tThe reduction of Lots to make tendering easier.\n•\tA framework mechanism to allow new Suppliers enter the framework.\n•\tSplit call-offs into smaller contracts where possible.\n•\tCase study type tender questions\nTender Modifications\nThe Authority reserves the right to:\n•\tRefine the Conditions of Participation Criteria\n•\tRefine/modify the Procurement process and/or terms\n•\tRefine the Award Criteria\n•\t'Roll' the Procurement to an appropriate previous stage\nClarifications\nAll questions/clarifications must be submitted via the Portal (more details below). Do not expect emails/calls to be responded to.\nAll Suppliers should access the 'Messages' section of the Portal on a regular basis to check for any clarifications issued on this project and/or any public exchange of information between interested parties, before final submission of their bid. It is the sole responsibility of Suppliers to do so.\nLGR\nLocal Government Reorganisation (LGR) is the process in which the structure and responsibilities of local authorities are reconfigured. The Government has set out plans to move away from the current two-tier system of county and district councils which are in place in some parts of county of Nottinghamshire and other parts of England.\nThe Authority has now received the Government's proposed decision regarding LGR in Nottinghamshire. However, there has been a pause in the LGR process so that Central Government can conduct a review. Due to the review there is some uncertainty over the exact timing of when (or if) any new structure will be implemented. The latest information is that the Authority will remain in their current format until at least April 2028.\nIt is considered the period of Agreements and Call-off Contracts under this Procurement is likely to be impacted by LGR, should this process be resumed. The current intention is that this Agreement / Call-off Contract would continue following any new structure implemented.\nAs a consequence of LGR, any resulting Agreement or Call Off Contract may be required to be transferred, assigned or novated (in whole or in part) to one or more successor authorities or other public bodies established as part of LGR, in accordance with applicable legislation.\nSuppliers acknowledge and accept that the Authority must comply with all statutory, regulatory and other legal requirements arising in connection with LGR and, to the extent necessary to do so, reserves the right to make such amendments to the procurement arrangements and/or any resulting Contract, Framework Agreement or Call Off Contract as are required or permitted by law.\nSuppliers must submit their Tender on the basis that such transfer, assignment, novation or amendment may occur and that no additional charges, price adjustments or termination rights shall arise solely as a result of LGR. Any reasonable steps taken by the Authority or a successor authority to notify Suppliers of matters arising from LGR shall be sufficient for the purposes of this procurement. \nEast Midlands Procurement Portal (the Portal)\nOnce the Tender Notice is published, Tender documents can be obtained from the East Midlands Procurement Portal at https://www.eastmidstenders.org/ by searching for CPU7343.
