What is being bought

Published requirement description

Oriel is a joint initiative between Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology, and Moorfields Eye Charity. Together, all services at Moorfields Eye Hospital on City Road and the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology on Bath Street, will be relocated to a new, integrated centre in Camden. This move is a transformative opportunity to create

a world-leading centre for eye care, research, and education. Harnessing clinical care and research expertise under one roof in a new fit-for-purpose centre will enable closer collaboration between clinicians and researchers to speed up the delivery of treatments

and therapies for patients. The centre will deliver the highest-quality clinical care, research and education in an environment that promotes innovation.

As a new development, Oriel requires the procurement of a comprehensive Soft Facilities Management (FM) Services solution to make the building fully operational. This service will include:

  • Cleaning
  • Grounds Maintenance
  • Security
  • Portering
  • Reception
  • Patient and Staff Catering
  • Waste Management
  • The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 1 Dec 2031, 23:59 GMT.
  • How the procedure runs: Competitive Flexible Procedure under the new Procurement Act 2023. This will be a multi stage process: Stage 1 - Invitation to Participate - PSQ/ Supplier Information Questionnaire. The Authority will undertake a review of the completed PSQ with reference to any information held on the Central Digital Platform. Responses to any conditions of participation, including pass/fail questions and scored questions, will be assessed in accordance with the selection process and any selection criteria as set out in the Tender Documentation. The assessment of these responses will identify the seven (7) highest ranking Suppliers who will be invited to participate in Stage 2, Stage 3 and Stage 4. Stage 2 - Invitation to Submit Initial Tender. The seven (7) highest-ranked tenderers that have not been excluded from the procurement process at Stage 1 will be invited to participate in the Initial Tender. The Initial Tender will not be scored and will serve solely as the basis for the Feedback Meeting Stage (Stage 3). However, the seven (7) highest-ranked Tenderers are still required to complete the relevant questionnaires and documentation. Stage 3 - Feedback Meetings (not scored) Meetings will be held with each Tenderer to provide feedback relative to their Initial Tender. Stage 4 - Invitation to submit a Best and Final Offer (BAFO) Following the completion of Stage 3, the tenderers that have not been excluded from the procurement process will be invited by the Contracting Authority to submit Best and Final Offer (BAFO) Tenders.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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