How this framework works

From the published notice
Type
Closed framework
Call-offs
call-offs may be awarded directly or by further competition
Framework period
4 yrs from 1 Oct 2026
Published description of the framework

Through the procurement process, we will request relevant pricing through the ITT stage whereby those rates upon contract award, will be written into the framework agreement as a ceiling cost. The expectation is that mini competitions will be run for all services required over £135K in order to gain competitive tension and be evaluated against quality and cost, with the most advantageous supplier being contract awarded.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 25 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2.5 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Capital Projects Multidisciplinary Consultancy Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.

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