"procedure": {
"features": "The first step within Stage 1 will be a completeness check. A complete bid is one which has been received by the deadline for submission of tenders, is complete and complies with the requirements of this ITT. Clarification and further information may be sought from bidders in order to determine if a bid is complete; Bidders must respond promptly and within any timeframe specified by the Contracting Authority and failure to provide sufficient clarification or information within the required timeframe may result in the bid being deemed incomplete and disqualified from further consideration. Additionally, any bid received after the submission deadline will be rejected. At the second step, the Contracting Authority will exclude any bidder that is an Excluded Supplier and reserves the right to exclude any bidder that is an Excludable Supplier - see Section 4.2. At the third step, the Contracting Authority will check that each bid satisfies the conditions of participation which are all pass/fail criteria set out in this ITT. Only bidders that pass Stage 1 will proceed to Stage 2. Stage 2 - Competency and experience (written responses) Stage 2 of the procurement process will consist of the evaluation of the technical requirements questionnaire set (Part 3 document Core requirements section of the ITT). For this stage, scores will be based on the technical questionnaire requirements written responses and pricing only. The Contracting Authority will be looking to take through a maximum of five (5) suppliers to Stage 3 but reserves the right to include further suppliers if they score within 5% points of the fifth highest scoring supplier. All other bidders who score less than the top five (5) highest scoring bidders will not advance to stage 3 and will be notified by Jisc. If less than five bidders submit a bid, then all the bidders will advance to the final stage. The Contracting Authority will provide Bidders with the results of weighted scores. Stage 3 - User engagement (supplier meetings) Stage 3 for the final bidders will involve a face-to-face (in-person) or virtual meeting. The Part 5 document will only be released to bidders who advance to the final (third) stage of the tender evaluation process, ahead of the scheduled meeting. Written/ prepared answers are not required. The evaluation panel will meet and evaluate the bidder as per Part 1, Section 4.5. The purpose of the stage is to experience and assess the bidders' user engagement abilities and qualities. Bidders will be assessed on their verbal response to questions posed. The process will be documented. Dates have been included for availability response in Part 3."

"description": "Jisc's intention is to award this contract to a maximum of three suppliers. The framework is a mechanism for awarding contracts on an event-by-event basis. The highest-scoring bidder will be designated as the preferred supplier for the framework. Direct awards may be made to the preferred supplier without a competitive process, regardless of contract value. Further information about how the framework will operate can be found in Appendix 5 Framework operation."
