Coverage: 62 active published awards; 4 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
*This is a re-tender of the previous Bodywork and Accident Repair Service* Due to the urgent need to establish the framework the timescales have been reduced.
The EA wishes to appoint suppliers to this Framework for the Provision of Vehicle
Bodywork and Accident Repair Services for the Northern, Eastern, Southern and Western
EA Fleet areas on a call off as required basis. EA is not obliged to procure services
exclusively from this Framework Agreement and is free to use their own in-house service
if applicable. The Framework will include a range of makes/models and size of vehicle to
be repaired after an accident to meet all statutory vehicle compliance and construction
requirements to a quality assured standard within a reasonable timeframe. The framework
will be split into 4 lots, details of which are provided within document TRN-25-013 Annex
02 Specification of Requirements. For the duration of the Framework the Suppliers
appointed to each lot must have the capacity to provide all vehicle bodywork and accident
repair to each area, and if required collection and or delivery of vehicles to specified
depots.
