Procedure

Features
The procurement will be conducted using the Competitive Flexible Procedure under section 20 of the Procurement Act 2023, comprising a Conditions of Participation stage followed by two ITT rounds. Suppliers meeting the proportionate Conditions of Participation will progress to ITT Round 1, with the Authority retaining the right to limit supplier numbers through the published selection methodology. Suppliers progressing to the ITT stage will be expected to facilitate a site visit. ITT Round 1 may include clarification and negotiation, followed by an intermediate assessment and down-selection of suppliers. The Authority may then undertake further negotiation with shortlisted suppliers and, where expressly provided for in the procurement documents, refine the award criteria and their relative importance in accordance with section 24, before issuing ITT Round 2 and requesting final tenders. Final tenders will be evaluated against the final published award criteria and assessment methodology, with the Contract awarded to the supplier submitting the Most Advantageous Tender (MAT) under section 19.
