Description
The Buyer may purchase items from the Framework via direct call-off or via a mini-competition. All items awarded under the Framework across all Lots will be available for the Buyer to order directly on the iProcurement shop. The requirements of the individual Buyer will differ on a case by case basis, and therefore, the Buyer has the right to select items from the Framework (appointed on the basis of the criteria set out in the original Call for Tender), either via the Core List or Non-Core List, from a Supplier on the respective Framework Lot based on this individual needs. The Buyer reserves the right to conduct mini competitions for any additional requirements over and above those listed under this Framework but which fall within the scope of the Framework, or for any requirements over the value of £10k within a Lot, during the period of the Framework. For the avoidance of doubt, mini-competitions may only be conducted between all awarded Suppliers within a Lot. It is envisaged that the Buyer may use this mechanism under the Framework where there exists a bulk purchase requirement. Any mini competition will be based on 100% price, however there may be a requirement for additional mandatory criteria specific to each project, for example supply / assembly by a specified time / date. The Framework will also have a 'non-core' list. The Supplier will have the opportunity to offer EA additional equipment that they feel would be of benefit to EA, and that fall within the overall scope of the respective Framework. Similarly, the Buyer may also engage with the Supplier to have items added onto the Framework at any time throughout the Term. Some examples of this may include (but are not restricted to) new product innovations, alternative product sizes, specifications or colours. The final decision to have any product added on to the Non-Core list rests with the Buyer Contract Manager.
