    "description": "In March 2023, the Department for Infrastructure (DfI) published the Procurement Enhancement Programme procurement strategy, developed to provide an efficient and value for money procurement route for the delivery of road asset maintenance across Northern Ireland. A key output of this strategy is the introduction of a suite of eleven Road Asset Management (RAM) Frameworks covering all roads maintenance and improvement works valued at up to PS5 million. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. . Four Surfacing Frameworks (A, B, C and D) have been developed by DfI to ensure the effective, efficient, and reliable delivery of road surfacing schemes across the Northern Ireland public road network. Each framework will last four years, covering surfacing requirements across a specified set of geographical areas and provide an opportunity for suppliers that have the capacity and appetite to deliver all types of surfacing schemes valued from PS50k up to PS5m. Each Framework will be divided into Lots in accordance with Regulation 46 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015. This arrangement has been adopted in order to ensure security of service delivery, preserve competition and encourage participation by SMEs. One surfacing framework is expected to be released every year. There will be restrictions on the number of Lots that an individual supplier can be awarded, both within and across the surfacing frameworks, full details of which will be set out in the procurement documents. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. . Under Surfacing Framework A (this procurement), there are a total of six Lots. There is one Lot (Lot 1) covering all surfacing schemes valued from PS750k to PS5m across the geographical area covered by the Framework. Multiple suppliers will be appointed to this Lot. Call-Off Contracts awarded under Lot 1 are intended to be awarded following mini-competitions. There are five Lots (Lots 2 to 6) each covering all surfacing schemes valued from PS50k to PS750k which are to be delivered within a defined geographical area. It is intended that a Primary Supplier will be appointed to each of Lots 2 to 6 and following Framework award the Primary Supplier will be awarded a Measured Term Contract (MTC) Call-Off Contract. Subject to performance, it is intended that all Works Orders for schemes valued from PS50k to PS750k within the Lot contract area will be placed with the Primary Supplier via the MTC Call-Off Contract. For each of Lots 2 to 6, a Reserve Supplier will also be appointed to provide delivery resilience, in line with procedures set out in the Framework. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. . Suppliers that are interested in this Surfacing Framework will be required to tender for Lot 1 and at least one of Lots 2 to 6. The number of MTC Lots a single Economic Operator may be awarded under this Framework shall not exceed: (i) Primary Supplier - two MTC Lots out of five and (ii) Primary and Reserve Supplier (Combined) - four MTC Lots out of five. In addition to these competition specific limits, there will be limits on the number of Primary Supplier Lots that can be awarded to any one Economic Operator when assessed across all Surfacing Frameworks (A-D). The maximum number of Lots that a Single Economic Operator may be awarded in any one TRAM Division is one less than the total Lots contained in that Division. The maximum number of Lots to which an Economic Operator can be appointed as Primary Supplier across all four Surfacing Frameworks (A-D) cumulatively, is five out of seventeen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. . Further information on DfI's Procurement Enhancement Programme and Road Asset Management Frameworks can be found in the document titled RAM FRAMEWORKS - PROCUREMENT ESSENTIALS at the following link: https://www.infrastructure-ni.gov.uk/publications/department-infrastructure-roads-works-and-maintenance-procurement-enhancement-programme--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. . The Contracting. Authority considers that this framework may be suitable for economic operators that are Small or Medium Enterprises. (SMEs). The. evaluation of submissions will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement, and the contract will be. awarded on the basis stated in II.2.5). All documents will only be available on line through the eTendersNI portal: (1) If your company is. not already registered on eTendersNI you may do so through the eTendersNI portal https://etendersni.gov.uk/epps/. home.do -- Select. the \"Register as a Supplier\" link and follow the on screen instructions. 2) Expression of Interest and access to tender documentation You may \"Express an Interest\" in a project and access the tender documentation via the projects CfT Menu. If you require assistance. or help to navigate the site please consult the on-line help, or contact the eTendersNI help desk. The documents may be downloaded up to the closing date and time for the submission. Submissions must be completed and returned to the Contracting Authority using. the online eTendersNI portal, to arrive not later than the time and date as stated in IV.2.2). The Contracting Authority is utilising an. electronic tendering system to manage this procurement and to communicate with Economic Operators. Accordingly, it is intended that all communications with the Contracting Authority, including the accessing and submission of tender responses, will be conducted via eTendersNI. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. . . Poor Performance, as part of its contract management procedures: the Contracting Authority and their CoPE will use the Protocol for Managing Poor Supplier. Performance contained in the Procurement documentation. The protocol sets out a series of five escalating stages to enable Contracting. Authorities and their CoPEs to manage poor performance by suppliers. At Stage 4, as an alternative to terminating the contract, senior. management in the Contracting Authority/CoPE can issue a Notice of Written Warning. At Stage 5, as an alternative to terminating the. contract, a notice of unsatisfactory performance can be issued to the Economic Operator. These notices remain current for the period of. time stated in the protocol and an Economic Operator must declare, in subsequent procurement competitions, if it has received a current. Notice of Written Warning or a current Notice of Unsatisfactory Performance within 3 years of the TP Submission Deadline. If an Economic. Operator has received more than one current Notice of Written Warning the Contracting Authority/CoPE, at its discretion, can consider. an Economic Operator's exclusion from future procurement competitions, being undertaken on behalf of bodies covered by the Northern. Ireland Public Procurement Policy, for a minimum period of 12 months. If an Economic Operator is subject to a notice of unsatisfactory. performance the Contracting Authority/CoPE, at its discretion, can consider the Economic Operator's exclusion from future procurement. competitions, being undertaken on behalf of bodies covered by the Northern Ireland Public Procurement Policy, for a period of 3 years.List of public bodies to which NI public procurement policy applies Department of Finance (finance-ni.gov.uk).",
