What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 100 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 10 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “DfI Roads and Rivers - Framework Agreement for General Training…” 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.

Publisher note: VI.3) Additional information 2. Contract Monitoring. The successful contractor’s performance on the contract will be regularly monitored.. Contractors not delivering. on contract requirements is a serious matter. It means the public purse is not getting what it is paying for. If. a contractor fails to reach. satisfactory levels of contract performance they will be given a specified time to improve. If, after the specified. time, they still fail to reach. satisfactory levels of contract performance, the matter will be escalated to senior management in DfI for. further action. If this occurs. and their performance still does not improve to satisfactory levels within the specified period, it may be. regarded as an act of grave. professional misconduct and they may be issued with a Certificate of Unsatisfactory Performance and the. contract may be terminated.. The issue of a Certificate of Unsatisfactory Performance will result in the contractor being excluded from all. procurement competition. being undertaken by Centres of Procurement Expertise on behalf of bodies covered by the Northern Ireland. Procurement Policy for a. period of twelve months from the date of issue of the certificate
