The rationale may include, but is not limited to, the necessity for urgency relating to timescales, the complexity of the project or continuity of works.\nAwarded suppliers have provided pricing on a core list of products as well a mark up % for non-core products which will be fixed for the first 7 months of this Framework, until 31st March 2027. Thereafter an annual price increase will be considered where the supplier can demonstrate in a transparent manner that such increases are justified. Price increases will be managed in accordance with the Terms & Conditions. Any agreed price changes will remain fixed for a minimum of 12 months following approval.\n- Award without Competition (Direct Award)\nUnder s45(4) of the Procurement Act 2023, Contracting Authorities may award directly to a Supplier without further competition under this Solution. The objective mechanism for supplier selection without competition under this Solution shall function as follows:\nA Contracting Authority may make a direct award to a specific Supplier where it has sufficient business or commercial reason for doing so. Reasons may include, but are not limited to:\n• Where the Contracting Authority is procuring additional or repeat services and the Supplier is an existing Supplier and to use an alternative Supplier would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance for the Contracting Authority;\n• Delivery of requirements specific to a Contracting Authority that can be assessed using the information provided at the point of Framework establishment\n• Where an expression of interest has identified that no other Suppliers on the Solution are willing / able to deliver the Call-Off; and/or\n• Where there are objectively justifiable contextual reasons to make a direct award to a specific Supplier, such as geographical requirements and/or bespoke requirements.\nResponsibility for complying with, and the reason for, this Call-Off procedure lies with the Contracting Authority who will need to satisfy its internal procedures that this process can be utilised.\nWhen an award without competition is made, the price will be based on the Solution contracted tendered rates. The Supplier rates can be improved (i.e. reduced) but must not exceed the capped tendered rates.\n- Further Competition / Mini Competition\nContracting Authorities may opt to run a further competition at their discretion throughout the life of the Solution.\nAll Suppliers awarded to the Solution may be invited to participate in a further competition. At the discretion of a Contracting Authority, Suppliers may be initially requested to provide an Expression of Interest (EoI) for the project. Any Supplier not expressing an interest by the assigned deadline may not be invited to participate in the further competition at the discretion of a Contracting Authority and in accordance with any guidance issued.\nThe criteria for evaluations at the further competition stage will be detailed by the Contracting Authority and included within the documentation issued at that stage. Contracting Authorities will utilise their own further competition documents.\nA mid-tender briefing/clarification session with Supplier can be conducted during a further competition process.\nContracting Authorities can reformat or supplement the further competition process to meet the requirements of any procurement in accordance with the Act and government guidance.\nFurther competition documentation may include different weightings than those used for the appointment to the Framework. The Contracting Authority can specify the criteria to be applied to the call-off contract criteria, including one or more of the below award criteria headings:\n• Quality - 0 - 100 %\n• Price - 0 - 100%\n• Social Value - 0 - 100%\nThe weightings applied to the above criteria may differ as will be specified by the Contracting Authority at the point of call-off.\nThe award criteria for further competitions may be categorised under the below sub-criteria headings which may be specific to the call off requirements:\n• Quality\n• Framework Management\n• Delivery Plan including indicative timescales\n• Contracting Authorities Financial Assessment\n• Quality & Performance Management\n• Social Value\n• Project Delivery Requirements\n• Health & Safety (Contracting Authorities may have differing assessment methodologies)\n• Price\n• Other\nAt further competition stage, Suppliers should be asked to provide a price based upon the actual requirements of the Contracting Authority. All rates provided within the Solution must not be exceeded but can be lowered to ensure a competitive bid.\nContracting Authorities should expect to be provided with detailed pricing at the Call-Off stage to ensure that the capped rates are not exceeded. The Contracting Authority can disqualify any Supplier who does so from the further competition process.\nCall-Off\nThe Framework will be accessible to Contracting Authorities through a Call-Off Contract.\nIt is envisaged that Call-Off Contracts will be valid for the duration of the Framework and can extend beyond termination of the Framework." } }, "lots": [ { "id": "1", "status":

This Framework will be made accessible to the Member Authorities and the Associate Members of NEPO via Call-Off contracts. NEPO will establish overarching terms and conditions that define the core principles of the Framework.\nPricing will be determined through the tender process and evaluated against predefined award criteria and associated weightings. All tenderers will be assessed accordingly.\nPricing submitted as part of this Framework will apply to requirements Nationally.\nPricing will be fixed from the point of the Framework commencement for a minimum period of 7 months until 31st March 2027. Thereafter an annual price increase will be considered where the supplier can demonstrate in a transparent manner that such increases are justified.\nFramework commencement will be considered from the issue of the Award Letter to successful tenderers following the Standstill period.\nThe Framework will be awarded on a non-ranked basis and Contracting Authorities may establish Call-Off Contracts through an award with or without further competition.\nAward without Competition:\nUnder s45(4) of the Procurement Act 2023, Contracting Authorities may award directly to a Supplier without further competition under this Solution. In order to direct award, there must be two elements: (i) the core terms are set out and (ii) there is an \"objective mechanism\" for supplier selection. The objective mechanism for supplier selection without competition under this Solution is as follows. \nThe objective mechanism is where an objective and transparent business or commercial reason exists, such as (but not limited to):\n• Where the CA is procuring additional or repeat services and the supplier is an existing supplier - and to use an alternative supplier would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance for the CA \n• Where an expression of interest has identified that no other suppliers on the solution are willing/able to deliver the call off\n• Where there are objectively justifiable contextual reasons to make a direct award to a specific supplier, such as geographical requirements and/or Contracting Authority specific product/service requirements for their bespoke requirements.\n• Where any of the above list applies to multiple suppliers, that from those suppliers, the supplier with the lowest price for the requirements being procured shall be awarded. \nResponsibility for complying with, and the reason for, this call-off procedure lies with the Contracting Authority who will need to satisfy its internal procedures that this process can be utilised and ensure it maintains an audit rail of decision making. \nWhen an award without competition is made, the price will be based on the solution contracted tendered rates. The supplier rates can be improved (I.e. reduced) but must not exceed the capped tendered rates. \nFurther Competition / Mini Competition:\nContracting Authorities may opt to run a further competition at their discretion throughout the life of the Solution.\nAll Suppliers awarded to the Solution may be invited to participate in a further competition. At the discretion of a Contracting Authority, Suppliers may be initially requested to provide an Expression of Interest (EoI) for the project. Any Supplier not expressing an interest by the assigned deadline may not be invited to participate in the further competition at the discretion of a Contracting Authority and in accordance with any guidance issued.\nThe criteria for evaluations at the further competition stage will be detailed by the Contracting Authority and included within the documentation issued at that stage. Contracting Authorities will utilise their own further competition documents.\nAt further competition stage, Suppliers should be asked to provide a price based upon the actual requirements of the Contracting Authority.
