Award

Description

The Authority is seeking to set up a Framework Agreement for the Provision of Electrical Testing to the named Academic Partners of the University of the Highlands and Islands.
The Framework Agreement is split into two (2) Lots. Lot 1 is for PAT Testing and Lot 2 is for Fixed Wire Testing. For the purpose of clarification, the below partners have access to this Framework Agreement. It should be noted that partners have the option to purchase requirements outside of this Framework Agreement and are not obligated to use the Framework Agreement.
- UHI Inverness
- UHI North Highland
- UHI Outer Hebrides
- UHI West Highland
- Sabhal Mòr Ostaig
It should be noted that UHI North Highland, UHI Outer Hebrides and UHI West Highland are expected to merge into one institution in the summer of 2023. In the event this merger takes place, the newly formed institution will have access to this Framework Agreement.
Each named Academic Partner may join the Framework Agreement at any time during the Framework Agreement, for some this will be when their existing supply Agreements expire; this means that from the beginning of the Framework Agreement, participation may be phased in.
Please note that this procurement exercise is split into two (2) Lots:
Lot 1 – PAT Testing
Lot 2 – Fixed Wire Testing
The Authority intends to appoint a maximum of one (1) Contractor to each Lot.
Tenderers can tender for one and/or multiple Lots. Tenderers should indicate which Lot(s) they are tendering for in the Single Procurement Document (SPD). Tender responses will be evaluated on a Lot by Lot basis.
The Tenderer can tender for one or multiple lots as long as they have the capacity and capability to meet the specification of requirements.

Framework Operation: Suppliers will be evaluated and ranked independently for each lot based on their tender responses. Awards will be made to a maximum of three suppliers on Lot 1 and Lot 2 respectively, and all suppliers on Lot 3 who meeti the minimum requirements of the tender.Suppliers will be ranked as either Primary or Secondary suppliers based on their evaluation scores, with Primary Suppliers being offered first opportunity for any Awards Without Competition via the framework. Call-off procedures: Participating Authorities may award call-off contracts through either: Award Without Competition to the Primary Supplier (highest-scoring supplier per lot), who will be given first consideration for call-off contracts; or Award Without Competition to a Secondary Supplier where the Participating Authority has specific requirements that cannot be met by the Primary Supplier, or where other valid reasons apply; or Further-competition among all framework suppliers capable of meeting the specific requirements. Pricing determination: Prices for call-off contracts will be determined through the suppliers' framework pricing submissions and the specific requirements of the Participating Authority (for direct awards) or through competitive tendering in mini-competitions. Supplier performance and transfer mechanisms: The Contracting Authority reserves the right to facilitate the transfer of Participating Authorities to alternative framework suppliers in circumstances including but not limited to: material supplier underperformance, supplier failure, force majeure, or where a Participating Authority's needs can only be served by an alternative supplier. Secondary suppliers provide essential resilience and optionality throughout the framework term. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to remove or suspend suppliers from the framework where performance issues are not addressed satisfactorily in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures. There is no restriction on the number of lots a single supplier may be awarded, enabling the appointment of a single primary supplier across multiple lots where this represents best value and meets strategic requirements.
