What is being bought

Published requirement description

Northumberland County Council (NCC) wishes to establish a Framework Agreement to

deliver the station packages of the Northumberland Line Rail Project. Two Contractors will

be appointed, a primary and a reserve.

The scope includes pre-construction services and, subject to funding, the construction of six

stations and car parks including the associated infrastructure at locations between

Ashington and Northumberland Park in Northumberland.

It is NCC's intention to directly award all call-off contracts to the Primary Contractor. Call-off

constract(s) will only be awarded to the Reserve Contractor under certain conditions which

will be detailed within the Tender Documentation.

The Framework Agreement will be based on the NEC4 Framework contract. Call-off

Contracts will be issued under the NEC4 Professional Services Contract (PSC) and

Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC).

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored
Quality: 60%Price: 40%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 60
  • Price: 40
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “NCC528 Northumberland Line Stations Construction Project” 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.
