"features": "The Competitive Flexible Procedures in the Public Procurement Act 23 outline a structured approach to procurement, while allowing for flexibility to adapt to changing requirements. The detailed steps involved in the process: Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) Assessment of Suppliers: The PSQ is assessed based on the selection criteria within the PSQ itself. Each question in the questionnaire is evaluated to determine if the supplier meets the required standards. Down Selection Process: The intention is to down select suppliers on a pass/fail basis. Only those suppliers who meet the necessary criteria will move forward to the next stage. Invitation to Tender (ITT) Shortlisted Suppliers: Once the PSQ stage is completed, the shortlisted suppliers who meet the criteria are invited to submit their full tender. Tender Documents: The full procurement documents, including requirements, specifications, and terms, are provided to the suppliers. Clarifications: Suppliers can ask questions or seek clarifications to ensure they fully understand the requirements and any flexibility involved in the process. Evaluation and Award Criteria The Framework Agreement will be awarded to the bidder who submits the most advantageous tender. Evaluation will consider: Commercial (Pricing) and Technical details for the items as specified in the tender. Babcock Land Defence Limited reserve the right to add further items of a similar nature to the contract post award, following Request for Quotations (RFQ)."
