If CCS were to tender on basis of a sole supplier / consortia award for the requirement set out in the PIN, would your organisation bid?<br/>a.

If CCS were to split the requirement into component elements (e.g. the prospective lot structure), Would your organisation bid?<br/>a. If so, for which lots?<br/>b. Can you suggest any alternative lot structure that would better enable you to bid?<br/>3. What initial fixed term contract length would be the most attractive for your organisation?<br/>4. Please provide examples of similar contracts your organisation are already delivering.<br/>5. Please provide any additional information or comments you feel would assist CCS to procure this requirement effectively.<br/>6. Estimated contract value is based on a 3 + 1 + 1 contract term.
