Further Competition. If the catalogue of Goods and Services or the terms of the Framework do not specifically satisfy the requirements of the Contracting Body then, subject to the provisions of Framework Schedule 5 (Ordering Procedure), a Contracting Body may award a Call-Off Agreement by undertaking a Further Competition on the basis of most economically advantageous tender ("MEAT"). At Further Competition the Contracting Body shall apply the following criteria and weightings to the framework providers’ compliant tenders. The Contracting Authority shall determine any sub-criteria and their respective weightings prior to inviting tenders: Quality 60% (this can be modified by the Contracting Body within a variance level of -/+30%) Assurance of supply To be set by Contracting Body Delivery lead-time To be set by Contracting Body Technical assistance To be set by Contracting Body After sales service To be set by Contracting Body Sustainability aspects To be set by Contracting Body Contracting Bodies Lot Specific Requirements To be set by Contracting Body Technical dimensions and/or functions to ensure fitness for purpose To be set by Contracting Body Charges 40% (this can be modified by the Contracting Body within a variance level of -/+30%) Price Evaluation To be set by Contracting Body
Further Competition. Customers who have significant volume or more complex requirements may further compete their requirements amongst the framework suppliers to determine which supplier will provide best value for their organisation. If you decide to carry out a further competition remember that CCS has already carried out a procurement exercise in compliance with all public procurement regulations to appoint suppliers to this agreement. You will need to prepare further competition documentation including an ITT (Invitation to Tender), a timetable for your competition, your specification/statement of requirements and the evaluation criteria you will use to evaluate bids (see evaluation criteria below). If you include a draft Order Form, completed as far as possible, this will help save time in getting your order placed with the successful supplier at the end of the further competition process. Ensure you allow suppliers sufficient time to prepare and submit their bids, and to encourage maximum supplier response only ask for information that is relevant to your requirement. During your bid evaluation, you must treat all suppliers equally and fairly and it is also vital that you evaluate the bids in the same way you stipulated in the further competition documentation. Once you have identified which bid was the most economically advantageous tender you must tell all the suppliers of the outcome of the further competition. You can place your order with the successful supplier by finalising and placing the completed order form. Further competition documentation should not duplicate what is in the standard T&Cs and should only cover any enhancements to these. Additional vehicle discounts will only be achieved on vehicle volumes as current framework discounts are already extremely competitive. Further competition evaluation criteria: Quality - 0% to 100% Price - 0% to 100% When running a further competition, you are able to utilise the CCS eSourcing tool. This is a free online procurement tool to help you manage your further competitions, creating a clear audit trail, and supporting the delivery of the further competition in line with EU regulations. If you wish to find out more about the system, its capabilities, and the benefits of using this, please contact the CCS eEnablement team at: xxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx.xx As with Direct Award, following a further competition once you are ready to order, you should use Framework Schedule 6 - Order Form and Call Off Schedules or the ...
