Opportunity overview

Northern Gas Networks (NGN) is seeking to establish a multi-supplier Framework Agreement for the provision of labour resource services to support the delivery of operational activities and works across its gas distribution network. The Framework Agreement will provide NGN with access to pre-qualified suppliers capable of supplying labour resources and associated services to support a broad range of planned, reactive and emergency works across multiple operational locations within the NGN network area. Call-off contracts will be awarded in accordance with the terms of the Framework Agreement. NGN's estimated annual expenditure under the Framework Agreement is approximately £1.5 million. This value is provided for indicative planning purposes only and does not constitute any guarantee, commitment or representation regarding the volume, nature, frequency or value of work that may be awarded during the term of the Framework Agreement. Subject to the outcome of the procurement process, NGN intends to appoint up to three (3) suppliers per Lot, within each geographic area, to the Framework Agreement. Suppliers are strongly advised to review all procurement documentation associated with this event and ensure they fully understand the requirements, evaluation methodology, scope of services, and instructions contained within the tender documents. It is the responsibility of each supplier to consider all information provided as part of this procurement when preparing and submitting their response. Failure to take account of the information contained within the procurement documents, including any supporting guidance and information published through Market Dojo, may adversely affect a supplier's submission.

Award Criteria Details
NGN intends to establish a multi-supplier Framework Agreement and may appoint: Up to three (3) suppliers per Lot, per Area. Appointments will be made in accordance with the final MAT ranking for each Lot and Area combination, based on the outcome of the evaluation process. Tenderers may be awarded: Multiple Lots; Multiple Areas; or Multiple Lot and Area combinations. Where fewer than three compliant and satisfactory tenders are received for a Lot and Area, NGN reserves the right to appoint fewer suppliers or to make no award where, in NGN's reasonable opinion, an award would not represent an appropriate outcome or deliver sufficient value, capability, compliance, or operational benefit. Framework appointments shall be made on a non-ranked basis. No supplier appointed to the Framework shall be designated as a primary, secondary, reserve, preferred, or exclusive supplier. Appointment to the Framework does not guarantee the award of any future call-off contract, work package, volume of work, or minimum spend. All future call-off opportunities shall be undertaken in accordance with the call-off procedures set out within the Framework Agreement. This Framework Agreement is established on a zero-value basis and does not guarantee any minimum value, frequency, volume, or exclusivity of work to appointed suppliers.

Commercial Submission
Description
Commercial submissions will be evaluated separately for each Lot and each geographic Area. Each Lot/Area combination will be assessed independently and will produce a separate commercial score for that Lot/Area. The commercial evaluation will be based on the scoreable rates submitted within the relevant Pricing Schedule for the applicable Lot and Area. Unless expressly identified as scoreable within the Pricing Schedule or relevant RFP documentation, quotation-based items, non-standard works, pre-approved works, cost-plus percentage items, and items requested for information only will not contribute to the commercial score. Each scoreable commercial line item will be evaluated independently using a proportional rate comparison methodology. No individual commercial line item will carry a separate weighting. Each scoreable line item will be scored out of a maximum of 10 points. For each scoreable line item, the lowest compliant rate submitted by any supplier for that Lot/Area will receive the maximum score of 10. All other compliant rates for that line item will be scored proportionately against the lowest compliant rate. The individual line scores achieved by each supplier will be aggregated to produce a raw commercial score for the relevant Lot/Area. The raw commercial score will then be converted into a commercial percentage score by comparing the supplier's total score against the maximum available score for that Lot/Area. The commercial percentage score will then be weighted to contribute 60% of the supplier's overall RFP score for the relevant Lot/Area. Each Lot and Area will be evaluated, ranked and awarded separately. A supplier's commercial score for one Lot or Area will not be carried across to any other Lot or Area.

Non-Commercial Submission
Description
Each Request for Proposal (RFP) will be supported by a separate, lot-specific Assessment Method Statement (AMS).

The specific question criteria, scoring guidance, question weightings, minimum thresholds where applicable, and any lot-specific assessment requirements will be set out within the separate lot-specific AMS issued for that RFP through Market Dojo. Suppliers must review the relevant lot-specific AMS in full, as the non-commercial scoring model may vary between Lots to reflect the specific nature of the services being procured. Suppliers are responsible for ensuring they have fully read, understood, and complied with the requirements set out in both this overarching AMS and the relevant lot-specific AMS prior to submitting a response.

All other compliant rates for that line item will be scored proportionately against the lowest compliant rate. The individual line scores achieved by each supplier will be aggregated to produce a raw commercial score for the relevant Lot/Area. The raw commercial score will then be converted into a commercial percentage score by comparing the supplier's total score against the maximum available score for that Lot/Area. The commercial percentage score will then be weighted to contribute 60% of the supplier's overall RFP score for the relevant Lot/Area. Each Lot and Area will be evaluated, ranked and awarded separately. A supplier's commercial score for one Lot or Area will not be carried across to any other Lot or Area.

Non-Commercial Submission
Description
Each Request for Proposal (RFP) will be supported by a separate, lot-specific Assessment Method Statement (AMS). Each scoreable non-commercial question within the relevant lot-specific RFP will be scored on a scale of 0 to 10. The specific question criteria, scoring guidance, question weightings, minimum thresholds where applicable, and any lot-specific assessment requirements will be set out within the separate lot-specific AMS issued for that RFP through Market Dojo. Suppliers must review the relevant lot-specific AMS in full, as the non-commercial scoring model may vary between Lots to reflect the specific nature of the services being procured. Suppliers are responsible for ensuring they have fully read, understood, and complied with the requirements set out in both this overarching AMS and the relevant lot-specific AMS prior to submitting a response.

Commercial Submission
Description
Commercial submissions will be evaluated separately for each Lot and each geographic Area. Each Lot/Area combination will be assessed independently and will produce a separate commercial score for that Lot/Area. The commercial evaluation will be based on the scoreable rates submitted within the relevant Pricing Schedule for the applicable Lot and Area. Unless expressly identified as scoreable within the Pricing Schedule or relevant RFP documentation, quotation-based items, non-standard works, pre-approved works, cost-plus percentage items, and items requested for information only will not contribute to the commercial score. Each scoreable commercial line item will be evaluated independently using a proportional rate comparison methodology. No individual commercial line item will carry a separate weighting. Each scoreable line item will be scored out of a maximum of 10 points. For each scoreable line item, the lowest compliant rate submitted by any supplier for that Lot/Area will receive the maximum score of 10. All other compliant rates for that line item will be scored proportionately against the lowest compliant rate. The individual line scores achieved by each supplier will be aggregated to produce a raw commercial score for the relevant Lot/Area. The raw commercial score will then be converted into a commercial percentage score by comparing the supplier's total score against the maximum available score for that Lot/Area. The commercial percentage score will then be weighted to contribute 60% of the supplier's overall RFP score for the relevant Lot/Area. Each Lot and Area will be evaluated, ranked and awarded separately. A supplier's commercial score for one Lot or Area will not be carried across to any other Lot or Area.
