How this framework works
From the published notice- Type
- Closed framework
- Call-offs
- call-offs may be awarded directly or by further competition
- Bids received
- 4 bids on the busiest of 4 lots · 5 suppliers appointed
- Framework period
- 2 yrs · up to 4 yrs from 26 Sept 2025
Published description of the framework
For LOTS 1- 3, places on this Framework are awarded the Bidders with the highest overall score, Maximum of six bidders to be awarded to each LOT, for LOTS 1- 3. Bidders can submit pricing for one or all LOTS but must be able to provide services in both areas (Area 1, Norwich City and Area 2, Norfolk). Works for Lots 1-3 will be awarded by way of Call-Off, a "basket of goods" approach will be used to determine the requirements of each call off, awards to be based on price and availability for the combination of inputs the works require.
For LOT 4 - Carriageway Re-Surfacing works, Bidders will be evaluated on Quality and Social Value only to be awarded a place on this LOT. A further competition will be undertaken to award works from this LOT, based on criteria of price and availability. LOT 4 is not included in the planned works and therefore no pricing element for this LOT is captured when establishing the Framework, due to the varied nature of the works. LOT 4 will not be restricted to a maximum number of suppliers.
