What is being bought

Published requirement description

Kent County Council (the Council) is the largest local authority in England covering an area of 3,500 square kilometres. It has an annual expenditure of over £1bn on goods and services and a population of 1.6m. The Council provides a wide range of personal and strategic services on behalf of its residents, operating in partnership with the NHS Kent and Medway Clinical Commissioning Group, 12 district councils, and 289 parish/town councils.

This service is being commissioned on behalf of the Growth, Environment and Transport directorate.

The A20 Coldharbour Roundabout scheme requires the design and construction of a new larger roundabout to replace the existing signal-controlled roundabout junction on the A20 at Coldharbour Lane. The junction connects the A20 corridor to the Strategic Road Network at Junction 5 of the M20. The site is located 2km to the north-west of Maidstone, Kent on the A20 corridor between Allington and Aylesford.

Lot #1The value of the contract is above the Public Contract Regulations 2015 threshold for…Awarded 1 yr 6 mo

The value of the contract is above the Public Contract Regulations 2015 threshold for Works and therefore a multistage competitive tender process (with an option to negotiate if required) was used to procure the requirement.

This Competitive Procedure with Negotiation (CPN) process consisted of the following stages:

  • Selection stage (Selection Questionnaire).
  • Invitation to Tender.
  • Negotiation Stage.
  • Invitation to Submit Final Tender.
  • Award.

The contract was awarded on the basis of the most economically advantageous tender (MEAT) and will be awarded to a single supplier.

The CPN procedure was chosen as the optional negotiation stage is critical in delivering the most advantageous tender.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 200 of 200 points: a 10% discount moves about 20 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.

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