What is being bought

Published requirement description

NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde Health Board (hereafter referred to as ‘The Board’) routinely procure a wide range of building materials required to support ongoing maintenance and repair activities across NHSGGC sites.

The Tenderer(s) shall be required to supply building materials, key goods include routine maintenance materials, planned project materials, and items required for unplanned or urgent works.

The chosen procurement approach is an open process that will establish a ranked framework, with a mini‑competition threshold set at GBP3500. This threshold was informed by a Pareto analysis, which showed that most spend with current building‑material suppliers falls within GBP3500 range.

For orders up to GBP3500, Direct Call‑Offs may be placed with the awarded supplier. For orders above GBP3500, a mini‑competition will be carried out among all framework suppliers to ensure best value.

Annual spend is estimated around GBP85714.6, for a four year contract spend would be estimated at GBP342858.4.

  • Price carries 120 of 160 points: a 10% discount moves about 12 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “GGC1014 Building Materials” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 5 suppliers, not a single contract.

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

Community benefits are included in this requirement. For more information see: https://www.gov.scot/policies/public-sector-procurement/community-benefits-in-procurement/ A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows: The Scottish Model of Procurement aims to secure the maximum economic benefit from the GBP10 billion spent by the public sector on goods and services each year, through an approach that balances the business friendly and the socially responsible. The Public Procurement Reform Programme delivers value that goes beyond savings and benefits – improving supplier access to public contracts, particularly for SMEs; maximising efficiency and collaboration; and placing the local, social and economic aspects of sustainability at the heart of the purchasing process. The Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 established a national legislative framework for sustainable public procurement that supports Scotland’s economic growth through improved procurement practice – and requires public bodies to consider how their procurement activity can improve the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of the authority’s area. It also specifically requires public bodies to consider imposing community benefit requirements as part of a major contract; these might relate to, for example, employment opportunities or to sub-contracting opportunities. The NHS GGC Mandatory Question is detailed in the specification document under the mandatory section.
