What is being bought

Published requirement description

Translink is establishing a Framework for the provision of Building Construction Works to support the delivery of Translink’s programme of capital and maintenance works. The Framework will consist of an Active List and a Reserve List. The Active List will consist of 6 Suppliers, and the Reserve List of 4 Suppliers. The duration of this Framework will be a maximum of 8 years in total. There will be an initial 4-year term with the option for extension(s) by up to a maximum of a further 48 months. No individual extension will be granted for a period longer than 24 months and any extension will be at the discretion of the Client. The end date set out in Contract Data Part One will reflect this requirement. Your response must be submitted via the relevant Call for Tender (CfT) on the eTendersNI portal. Instructions on how to submit your response can be found within the Interactive Walkthrough on the eTendersNI Homepage. No other method of submission will be accepted.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “FW078 Building Contractor Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 8 suppliers, not a single contract.

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