Notice Description

Crown Commercial Service ("CCS") is completing and submitting this VEAT notice in relation to the procurement of Lot 1 of the RM6165 framework. The RM6165 framework is divided into Lots. This notice only relates to Lot 1. For further information on the procurement of the RM6165 framework, please refer to the original FTS Contract Notice Reference Number - 2021/S 000-004771.

Lot Information

Built Environment & General Infrastructure

Lot 1 Built Environment & General Infrastructure is dedicated to provide a wide range of industry expert construction professional services at discreet delivery stages (from inception to completion). The services are intended to support eligible public sector bodies in delivering a wide and varied range of major and minor building, and civil engineering projects at locations throughout the UK.

Procurement Information

Under question IV.1.1 Type of Procedure, CCS indicated that the procedure used was "Award of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition." This option was only selected due to mandatory requirements for completing and submitting a VEAT notice. A contract notice (i.e. a call for competition) compliant with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 was published in connection with the procurement for the four contracts referenced in section V. These four contracts come under Lot 1 of the RM6165 framework and the original FTS Contract Notice for that framework is under reference number - 2021/S 000-004771. Further documents for RM6165 can be accessed at: https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f5017626-8414-461d-8cdc-d6cc6100baff CCS initially awarded 16 contracts under Lot 1 of RM6165 following an open procedure. Shortly afterwards, having reviewed its requirements, and those of its customers, CCS determined that, to ensure the framework provides sufficient capacity coverage to service its customers' needs, Lot 1 should be amended to have 20 suppliers. Accordingly, CCS intends to award these 4 additional contracts in accordance with the compliant competitive procedure. For the avoidance of doubt, the intention of issuing this VEAT notice is to provide the market with sufficient notice of these four additional contracts.

A contract notice (i.e. a call for competition) compliant with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 was published in connection with the procurement for the four contracts referenced in section V. These four contracts come under Lot 1 of the RM6165 framework and the original FTS Contract Notice for that framework is under reference number - 2021/S 000-004771. Further documents for RM6165 can be accessed at: https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f5017626-8414-461d-8cdc-d6cc6100baff CCS initially awarded 16 contracts under Lot 1 of RM6165 following an open procedure. Shortly afterwards, having reviewed its requirements, and those of its customers, CCS determined that, to ensure the framework provides sufficient capacity coverage to service its customers' needs, Lot 1 should be amended to have 20 suppliers. Accordingly, CCS intends to award these 4 additional contracts in accordance with the compliant competitive procedure. For the avoidance of doubt, the intention of issuing this VEAT notice is to provide the market with sufficient notice of these four additional contracts."
