"description": "Assessment Methodology for the Conditions of Participation assessed via the Procurement Specific Questionnaire. The Assessment Methodology includes both pass/fail and scored questions. Tenders must meet all pass/fail requirements, to be considered for further evaluation. The Technical Conditions of Participation are the following: Previous experience of: * Delivering large scale end to end managed service(s) * Managing large and complex supply chains * Delivering innovation to customers through product development All responses to Technical Conditions of Participation will be evaluated and scored using the following marking scheme Table 1f MARKING SCHEME GRADE % OF MARKS Candidate provides a response of a high standard that provides a high level of confidence that the candidate meets the requirements 4 100% Candidate provides a response of a mid to high standard that provides a mid-level of confidence that the candidate meets the requirements 3 75 Candidate provides a response of a low to mid standard that provides a low to mid level of confidence that the candidate meets the requirements 2 50 Candidate provides a response of a low standard that provides a low level of confidence that the candidate meets the requirements 1 25 Candidate fails to provide a response or the response is of such a poor standard to provide no confidence that the candidate meets the requirements 0 0 Each question will be assigned a weighting and this is indicated in the title of the question. The weighting that each question carries will be multiplied by each available total mark that each question has allocated to be evaluated in this section. Question 19 has been weighted at 20% of the overall available marks. A grade of 4 would score 100% of the marks and be worth 20%. A grade of 3, would score 75% of the available marks and would be worth 15%. A minimum grade of 2 is required for each section. Any bidder who fails to score at least a 2 for any one section will be disqualified from the tender. Following the scoring process, the top four highest-scoring Tenderers will be shortlisted and invited to the next stage of the procurement process. If multiple Tenderers achieve the same score in a position that affects the final ranking, they will be treated as holding the same place, which may result in more than four bidders being invited to the next stage.",

However, after thorough evaluation, It has been determined that a fully managed service approach is the most suitable and cost-effective option. This decision aligns with authority requirements and supports the view offered by the market during pre-market engagement In accordance with section 18 (3) of the Act, the decision not to divide the contract into lots was based on the following justifications: Efficiency & Cost-Effectiveness A fully managed service reduces administrative burden on the contracting authority, eliminating the need for complex contract management across multiple suppliers. Multiple lots would increase procurement and oversight costs. The economies of scale achieved through a single supplier would allow better pricing, efficiencies and opportunities long term cost reduction. Supplier Market Feedback Supplier engagement results indicated that a fully managed service was the preferred and most attractive option. Lots could limit competition as suppliers may not bid on smaller, less commercially viable lots. Quality Assurance & Standardisation A single contract ensures uniformity in design, quality and service delivery, reducing the risk of inconsistencies. A single point of accountability simplifies quality control, dispute resolution and contract management."
