Procedure

Features
This is a two-stage procedure comprising a "conditions of participation" PSQ stage containing Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) documentation followed by a Tender stage assessing Quality (including Social Value) and Price. Following assessment of responses to the PSQ, a shortlist of the highest scoring potential suppliers who meet the minimum requirements will be drawn up. (See the PSQ Supplier Selection Guidance.) The shortlisted suppliers will be selected to participate in the Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage. Suppliers, are therefore, only to complete the PSQ Stage documentation by the set deadline.
