  • Quality: 70

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “19 146 - Low Value Construction Services Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

Review and risk notes
Review procedure

Cheshire East Borough Council incorporated a standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract was communicated to tenderers. That notification provided full information on the award decision. The standstill period, which was for a minimum of 10 calendar days provided time for unsuccessful tenderers to challenge the award decision before the contract was entered into. The Public Contracts Regulations, 2015 (SINo 102) provides for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).

Publisher note: Any orders placed under this Framework will form a separate contract under the scope of this framework. The total value of the Low Value Construction Services Framework will be in the region of 16,500,000 GBP. The values given in this notice are only estimations and are for the initial 3 year contract period and also take into account the extension option of up to a further 12 months. The Authority gives no guarantee or warranty or makes any representation as to the accuracy of any indicative volumes or as to the value of the work during the contract period.
