Published requirement description

Cardiff Metropolitan University is awarding a Framework Agreement to a small number of suitably skilled and experienced executive teaching specialists to assist the Creative Leadership and Enterprise Centre (CLEC) in the continued design and delivery of its executive leadership and business growth programmes.

In utilising this framework agreement, we are appointing a pool of subject specialists to provide executive teaching, coaching and support services in a range of subject specialist lots to reflect leadership and business growth themes. The teaching will be required for existing externally and internally funded programmes and any future work programmes the CLEC team is successful in bidding for.

The estimated total value of the procurement and the estimated values per lot provided in this notice are not guaranteed and are fully dependant on CLEC being successful in winning all future work programmes over the total course of the framework agreement.

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.
  • “Creative Leadership & Enterprise Centre (CLEC) Framework for the…” 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.
