Description of the procurement The Architects Cutting Edge Framework is for the provision of architectural services for residential-led development projects and is split into 3 geographical lots. However, the CEF Consortium Members will reserve the right to use service providers successful on one geographical lot, within the same work stream, in another geographical lot, when no service provider within the geographical lot in question is available to undertake the relevant works and value for money can be established. The CEF Consortium Members are committed to the use of the Architects Cutting Edge Framework, and therefore bidders should anticipate that the overall value of the framework would be in line with the values identified within this contract notice. This Lot is for projects in North West England from Cheshire to Cumbria (the area as more accurately described on the plan in the procurement documents) (the "Lot 1 Regions"). Riverside is looking to establish a framework of providers of architectural services for significant development works in the Lot 1 Regions which may include but shall not be limited to:
1. sites for residential use;
2. mixed-use residential-led sites;
3. Mixed-use elements to include health facilities, education and community facilities, retail or commercial development;
4. Urban regeneration;
5. Refurbishment / retrofit of existing houses, residential buildings, empty homes and associated buildings for residential-led use;
6. Refurbishment, restoration, conversion of heritage or other buildings for residential-led use;
7. Demolition, site remediation, infrastructure and enabling works to prepare sites for residential or mixed-use development;
8. Design and construction of homes; and
9. Self-build or custom build enabling as part of a larger development. As minimum requirements, Riverside will expect, amongst other things, that the successful bidders will:
1. be capable of delivering the services in accordance with the Standard Agreement 2010 (2012 revision), the RIBA Standard Conditions of Appointment for an Architect 2010 (2012 revision) and Plan of Work 2013 as published by the Royal Institute of British Architects or an institution or association of equivalent standing in this field ("RIBA");
2. hold appropriate qualifications accredited by RIBA as required for the delivery of architectural services;

6. be capable of delivering excellent customer care and an appreciation of the importance of maintaining clear and regular communication with clients at every stage of the project; and
7. be capable of delivering the required services in accordance with the terms of the Architect Scope of Service which are set out in the procurement documents. The full details of Riverside's minimum requirements will be set out in the ITT. The procurement will involve a two stage process following the Public Contract Regulations 2015 restricted procedure. The framework agreement will be established for a period of 4 years. The overall value of this lot is ?2,600,000 - ?3,200,000.
Denial/Restoral OSS Charge In the event <<customer_name>> provides a list of customers to be denied and restored, rather than an LSR, each location on the list will require a separate PON and, therefore will be billed as one LSR per location. <<customer_name>> will incur an OSS charge for an accepted LSR that is later canceled by <<customer_name>>. Note: Supplements or clarifications to a previously billed LSR will not incur another OSS charge. <<customer_name>> will incur the mechanized rate for all LSRs, both mechanized and manual, if the percentage of mechanized LSRs to total LSRs meets or exceeds the threshold percentages shown below: Year Ratio: Mechanized/Total LSRs 2000 80% 2001 90% The threshold plan will be discontinued in 2002. BellSouth will track the total LSR volume for each CLEC for each quarter. At the end of that time period, a Percent Electronic LSR calculation will be made for that quarter based on the LSR data tracked in the LCSC. If this percentage exceeds the threshold volume, all of that CLEC’s future manual LSRs for the following quarter will be billed at the mechanized LSR rate. To allow time for obtaining and analyzing the data and updating the billing system, this billing change will take place on the first day of the second month following the end of the quarter (e.g. May 1 for 1Q, Aug 1 for 2Q, etc.). There will be no adjustments to the amount billed for previously billed LSRs.
