Authority: Oldham Council (Local council)·Consortium: 3 public authorities
What is being bought8 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionOldham Council as the Contracting Authority in partnership with Procure Partnerships has let a North West Contractor Framework with a maximum duration of four years, which may be used to award contracts for Oldham Council's pipeline of works and is accessible by North West public sector bodies / 'Contracting Authorities' as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Procure Partnerships have successfully been operating and delivering a North West Contractor Framework across the North West of England for the past three years supporting with the procurement and delivery of over 100 construction projects within this period. The Framework is designed to align with the ambitions of the Construction Playbook, and to help the public sector deliver on the Government's ambition to 'build back better' bringing together commercial best practice and reform to drive better, faster, greener delivery.
The Framework will go-live 1st April 2022 and is therefore anticipated to expire in March 2026, but in line with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 Framework users may award contracts under the Framework which may exceed the length of the Framework itself.
Potential Framework users may include North West; Schools, Academies, Colleges, Universities, Blue Light/Emergency Services, NHS Bodies, Local Authorities, Health and Social Care Bodies, Housing Associations, Libraries and Museums, Registered Charities, Government Departments, Leisure Providers, Clinical Commissioning Groups; as more particularly set out in the Contract Notice 2021/S 000-012131
Users of the Framework will be able to procure works with associated services (e.g., new build, refurbishment, fit out, infrastructure, single site/project works or multi site projects/ programmes of works) thereunder on the basis of established fixed Contractor overhead and profit rates, and hourly rates. Projects may be of Design and Build or Build Only in nature, under a Two Stage or Single Stage procurement route, embracing both NEC and JCT forms of contract, in compliance with the restrictions on and full freedoms for the range of works and building types provided by the CPV codes referenced. CPV codes 71000000 and 44000000 are to be taken as being covered by this procurement only in context of delivering 4500000 construction works. On the same basis, the Framework includes infrastructure works Lots; construction work for pipelines, communication and power lines, for highways, roads, airfields and railways; flatwork.

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).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
- Suitability
Please refer to the Procurement Documents for full details.
- Price carries 30 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 3 points.
- “North West Contractor Framework” 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: 1. Any values stated are exclusive of VAT. 2. Any values stated (mandatory entries) in respect of individual contract awards or Lots are a duplicate of the entire Framework value because it is not possible to indicate the value of each award or Framework Lot. The total estimated value of the Framework over its term, however it may be spread across all of the Lots, is £1.8bn. 3. Economic Operator/Contractor addresses/locations stated refer to registered office addresses which may be different to their operational address for the purpose of works which may be delivered under the Framework. 4. The entry requirements of this award notice form necessitated that the 'number of tenders received' be entered per 'award of contract'. However one bidder and therefore each 'award of contract' may have been awarded a place on multiple lots as indicated. In these circumstances the 'number of tenders received' entered on this notice is the total number of tenders received across all lots awarded to that bidder. For clarity, below are the number of tenders received and framework places awarded per individual Lot tendered: Lot 1 - 16 bids received - 9 framework places awarded Lot 2 - 21 bids received - 9 framework places awarded Lot 3 - 19 bids received - 9 framework places awarded Lot 4 - 14 bids received - 8 framework places awarded Lot 5 - 10 bids received - 8 framework places awarded Lot 6 - 12 bids received - 8 framework places awarded Lot 7 - 8 bids received - 5 framework places awarded Lot 8 - 4 bids received - 3 framework places awarded
