The lotProcurement structure

single lot · no lot value published
Lot #1The contract will be awarded under a framework agreement to a single supplier and…AwardedRenewal

The contract will be awarded under a framework agreement to a single supplier and under this agreement, no minimum workload is guaranteed. Services will be agreed on an ‘as required’ basis only.

The framework will be non-exclusive i.e. HIE reserves the right, in certain circumstances, to procure out with the Framework, as and when required.

This Framework will be awarded by Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) on behalf of both themselves and Inverness Campus Owners Association (ICOA). It will also be available for call-off by any current or future HIE subsidiary organisation, associated company, joint venture or similar, subject to a case-by-case prior approval by HIE. This may include, without limitation, Cairngorm Mountain Scotland Limited (CMSL) and/or Orkney Research and Innovation Campus (ORIC).

The price used in II.2.7 and V.2.4 is the potential cost if all extensions are invoked. Additional information: Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

Delivery: Scotland
Extensions: HIE reserves the right, on giving reasonable written notice from time to time, to require changes to the Services (whether by way of the removal of Services, the addition of new Services, or increasing or decreasing the Services). HIE shall not require any such change other than where it is permitted by Regulation 72 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. Where HIE determines (at its sole discretion) that demand for support under one or more Lots is lower than expected, HIE reserves the right to re-allocate the budget for that Lot to one or more of the other Lots, subject to the maximum total budget of GBP 1,236,000 across all Lots and including all options. · It is expected that these services will be required from November 2021 for an initial period of 3 years, unless terminated in accordance with the provisions of the framework agreement, with HIE having the option to extend for a period or periods together not exceeding 1 year following the initial term.Variant bids: not allowed

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.
  • “Property Consultancy - Lot 3 Building Surveying” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.

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