During the initial compliance check, 3 out of 6 bidders were found to have omitted mandatory response documents including pricing schedules, quality questionnaires, and social value templates. Legal and Commercial Assessment: 1. Inability to Clarify: The missing items represent core evaluation criteria. Under the Procurement Act 2023, allowing these 3 bidders to submit these items post-deadline would constitute an unlawful bid modification and a material breach of equal treatment. 2. ITT Constraints: The ITT explicitly states that failure to provide these documents results in non-compliance and disqualification. The Council is bound by its own rules. 3. Market Testing Deficit: The service area has assessed that evaluating only the remaining 3 bids does not create a sufficiently competitive environment. It introduces an unacceptably high risk of failing to secure value for money or a resilient supply chain. Conclusion: To mitigate the legal risk of a procurement challenge from compliant bidders the most proportionate and rational course of action is to disqualify the non-compliant bidders, abandon the procurement, and publish a Procurement Termination Notice under Section 55.",
