Description
When orders are required by the Authority under Lot 1 – a direct call-off (at Authority’s discretion) will be used. This will often be based upon the availability of the parts and to keep in theme at particular parks. When orders are required by the Authority under Lot 2, a mini competition or a Direct call-off (Rotational) will be used. Where the Council is using the Rotational Call-Off, the Council will start the rotation with the highest ranked Supplier. If the highest ranked Supplier can fulfil the order, then they shall be awarded the call-off. The next time a call off agreement is required on rotation then it shall go to the next highest ranked supplier who was not awarded the call-off previously or skipped. If a Supplier is unable to fulfil the call-off, then they shall be skipped over in the rotation. Once all the Suppliers have been offered a call-off by rotation the list shall restart from the beginning. For avoidance of doubt the order of rotation is not affected by Suppliers being awarded a contract via a mini competition. When orders are required by the Authority under Lot 3, Lot 4, Lot 5 and Lot 6, the lowest priced Suppliers’ product will be chosen. If the item is not available, then the next lowest priced Supplier will be approached and so on. Where there are two or more items that are priced the same by individual Suppliers, the Authority will purchase firstly from the Supplier that scored the highest overall (quality and price) marks in the tender.
