How can I use this Framework

The framework can be utilised via one of the three following options:

  • Direct Award (2 options): This method can be used where all the terms and objective conditions (award criteria) are set out within the procurement documents to allow you to make a decision for award of the contract. This choice must be made based on the objective criteria laid out and you cannot introduce new or amended criteria.

      Desktop Exercises:-

      • 1. If the weightings laid down in the evaluation process DO reflect the requirements of the institution and if the prices/terms are sufficiently precise for the institution to clearly identify who offers the best value for money they can select the best price for their requirements from the supplier price lists to determine the overall most economically advantageous tender by using the desktop calculator.
      • 2. It is anticipated that a direct award may be used in occasional instances of urgent need and/or a one-off need. For this purpose the institution will select the best price for their requirements from the supplier price lists to determine the successful bidder.
    • Mini Competition (single option): If your requirements are not reflected in the evaluation process, you are required to invite all suppliers on the relevant framework lot to submit pricing for your requirements. You will be able to adjust the quality requirements on the desktop calculator accordingly. This can be done each time a reasonable duration subject to performance and mutual agreement.

    Specific documents relating to the 3 options are embedded in the user guide.
