The ITT will comprise both qualitive questions and price evaluation (via the inclusion of a commercial model). Following the evaluation of the ITT SCAPE will award places on the framework to the three highest scoring bidders who provided the Most Advantageous Tenders, based on combined score (Quality and Price).

        "description": "The framework enables Clients to appoint Delivery Partners for commissions either through a non-competitive call-off using the Objective Mechanism, or through a Competitive Selection Process. Both approaches comply with the Procurement Act 2023 and ensure transparency, fairness and consistency across all partners. Full information regarding the call-off process and objective criteria will be provided to those bidders who progress to tender stage.\n1. Objective Mechanism – Non-Competitive Selection\nThe Objective Mechanism is the route for above-threshold call-offs where Clients wish to award without further competition. It is an automated scoring-based model derived directly from tender (ITT) scores submitted during the original framework procurement.\nTo determine the outcome Clients select from several criteria groupings (Primary and Secondary), each with rules on permitted combinations and weightings:\nPrimary Criteria:\n· Balanced Award: combined ITT price + quality\n· Quality-Led Award: highest ITT quality score\n· Price-Led Award: highest ITT price score\n· Performance-Led Award: “Achievement of Commitments” (after 12 months)\nSecondary Criteria:\nOptional additional sub-criteria in areas such as:\n· Technical ability\n· Social value\n· Environmental\n· Performance metrics (e.g., Tender Commitments)\n· Pricing categories\n2. Competitive Selection Process – With Further Competition\nClients may instead choose a competitive process compliant with Procurement Act 2023 section 46.\nPermitted Competitive Activities\nClients may select one or more of the following:\n· Written Question Submission\n· Case Studies\n· Interviews\n· Behavioural Assessments\nAll Delivery Partners must be issued the same materials/questions. Participation by Partners is discretionary.\nCritical Restriction:\nClients cannot request fee proposals or price submissions during a competitive selection. Pricing evaluation must not be based on any fee proposal. However, Clients may review the commercial model (already tendered at framework stage) as provided via the Framework Agreement following signature of a SCAPE Access Agreement.\n3. Contract Award Requirements\nFollowing use of either route (Objective Mechanism or Competitive Selection), Clients must publish:\n· Contract Award Notice\n· Contract Details Notice On Find a Tender Service (FTS), including partner name, project value and rationale.\nClients then proceed through their own internal governance and due diligence.",
