Conditions of participation1
  • Suitability

    As described in the Procurement documents

Legal form for consortia
The successful partners, whether being a single contractor, prime contractor (which may be an existing company or special purpose vehicle) or consortium, will be required to be a single legal entity
Shortlisting
There will be a single PQQ that will qualify suppliers into the ITT stage. Service Providers must indicated in the PQQ all Lots they are bidding on, if you are successfully shortlisted at PQQ you must submit a response to the ITT for each lot bidding on. Each Lot evaluated against MEAT as described in the Procurement Documents
Successive reduction
Candidates will be reduced successively across stages
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 130 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Southern Water Non Infra Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 7 suppliers, not a single contract.

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