Procedure

Features

The procurement will be conducted using a Competitive Flexible Procedure comprising four stages. - Stage 1: Suppliers will submit a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ), Conditions of Participation, and a full Tender response. - Stage 2: Validation, including presentations and site visits, will be undertaken to verify and substantiate tender submissions. - Stage 3: Negotiation, negotiations may be conducted with one or more Suppliers to refine and clarify tender submissions, in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. - Stage 4: Remaining Suppliers will be invited to submit a Best and Final Offer (BAFO). The Council reserves the right to award the contract following Stage 2 without proceeding to negotiation or BAFO where a tender constitutes the Most Advantageous Tender once validated. The Council may issue updated or refined procurement documents at any point before the relevant submission deadlines to reflect the current stage of the Competitive Flexible Procedure, any modifications to requirements, or new information arising during the process. Following contract award, and in accordance with Schedule 8 of the Procurement Act 2023, the Council may introduce modifications to the contract where permissible, including unforeseen modifications arising over the contract term. The proposed services are based on current funding allocations and may be subject to adjustment during the lifetime of the contract in response to changes in local or central government funding. The Contracting Authority is West Sussex County Council (WSCC), or any successor body that may assume WSCC's functions as a result of Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) or Devolution. Successor bodies may include (but are not limited to) a Local Authority, Combined Authority, Combined County Authority, Strategic Authority, or any entity established under relevant legislation. The Parties acknowledge that organisational structures or responsibilities may change during the contract term, including through merger, reorganisation or abolition. In such cases: - WSCC may assign, novate or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations under the contract to a successor body. - The Provider must cooperate fully with any such transfer, including executing required documentation. - No compensation will be payable solely due to such reorganisation, and no adjustment to the Contract Price will be made unless expressly agreed by both parties.
