Removal and Relocation Services

The North Eastern Universities Purchasing Consortium (NEUPC) are leading on a process to award a framework for Removals and Relocations. The scope of this framework will cover commercial removals and relocations, plus additional specialisms such as removals and relocations of arts & artefacts and laboratory equipment, crate hire/purchase, storage, and international transit. Bidders will be able to select which specialisms they are able to cover on this framework. Lot 1 is specifically for small projects, Members will define project size by using the following criteria: i.Calculation Test – a contract value of less than £100k ii.Complexity Test – large contracts require significant project management etc, whereas smaller contracts are considered less complex iii.Capability Test – preliminary market consultation across relevant lot(s) iv.If, despite endeavours, it remains unclear which is the appropriate definition, the Member may choose to offer their contract opportunity to both size lots (ie, their chosen Region in Lot 1 and to national Suppliers in Lot 2) This agreement will be open to universities and their partners regardless of whether or not they are to be defined as contracting authorities for the purpose of the PCR 2015’. It is possible that some of the future call off contracts under this framework may be part funded from external streams, including European Union (EU) funding and (ERDF/ESF) and potentially other research bodies. All funding assessed under this framework will be considered compliant for the purposes of external funding by the named participants. Additional information: NEUPC reserves the right, subject to the Regulations, to change without notice the basis of, or the procedures for, the competitive sourcing process or to terminate the process at any time. Under no circumstances shall NEUPC incur any liability in respect to this ITT or subsequent documentation.
