What is being bought

Published requirement description

*This is a contract award notice and this opportunity has closed* It is Hyde’s intention in respect of this invitation to tender to create a Framework Agreement for the supply of Barrister Services for the use of primarily The Hyde Group (Hyde) but also for the use of other public sector authorities as defined in the FTS contract notice. The Service Provider will generally be required to provide barrister services subject to project specific requirements under each Call-off Agreement but will primarily cover the services described in this document. The proposed duration of the Framework is for four (4) years in line with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. However, each member may enter in a Call-off Agreement under the Framework Agreement which can extend beyond this period. Hyde are seeking to select and award a contract to a number of panel providers.

What this means for your bid

Price carries 35 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3.5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
“Barrister Services Framework 2023” 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.
