Lots

• NEPO used a competitive procedure with negotiation for the procurement of this Framework Agreement. The first stage was a selection questionnaire which was used to shortlist suppliers. Shortlisted suppliers were then invited to tender . The selection questionnaire document also contained an ITT overview that sets out the high-level requirements of the Framework Agreement. This document allowed suppliers to determine interest in the opportunity and consider the required capability and capacity to deliver the Framework Agreement. The Framework Agreement is a single supplier and single lot solution, awarded to a Delivery Partner. Those suppliers shortlisted from the selection questionnaire were evaluated in accordance with the award criteria contained within the ITT documents. NEPO reserved the right to enter into negotiations with tenderers in line with the requirements of the competition with negotiation procedure. NEPO also reserved the right not to enter into negotiations and award the Framework Agreement on the basis of initial tender. The most economically advantageous Tenderer has been awarded onto the Framework Agreement. NEPO does not give any guarantee and/or warrant the actual value of the services (if any) which will be placed with the successful Tenderer by any Contracting Authority using the Framework Agreement pursuant to this process and accepts no liability thereof. In accordance with the Framework Agreement, each Contracting Authority will enter into a call-off contract. The call-off contract is to be entered into by both the Contracting Authority and the successful Tenderer and will be based on the terms and conditions of the Framework Agreement. Additional information: The Framework Agreement is anticipated to exceed 48 months in duration. This is due to the commercial and contractual complexity of the Framework Agreement combined with the cost of administrating the procurement for NEPO, Contracting Authorities and Tenderers.£750m
