Published requirement description

North Ayrshire Council is seeking tenders from suitably qualified and experienced professional service providers for a variety of professional consultancy services to North Ayrshire Council, as part of a new professional services framework agreement. The services provided will be delivered in North Ayrshire including the islands of Arran and Millport.

This encompasses a range of multi-disciplinary engineering and construction consultancy services used by the Council. The professional service providers will be required to undertake a wide range of activities related to each of the services. The scope of services is divided into 20 lots.

It will be a requirement of the framework that bidders must have the appropriate qualifications and memberships(or equivalents) as detailed in the tender documents for each lot they submit a bid for. Due to the multiple qualification requirements across all 20 Lots this cannot be individually listed in this section. Please refer to the ESPD Guidance Document where full qualification requirements are provided.

The framework agreement will commence 1 September 2020 for a period of 3 years with an option to extend up to a further 1 year.

How bids were scored
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60–80 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 60 points.
  • “NAC/2158 Professional Services Framework Agreement” 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.
