The Contracting Authority also reserves the right at its sole discretion following the completion of the evaluation of all responses and the identification of the Most Advantageous Tender according to the award criteria to enter dialogue with the most advantageous tenderer in order to refine elements of the contract, service, specification, social value offer, sustainability and or cost prior to the execution of the contract. Nothing stated in this ITT or during the Competition is or shall be relied on as a promise or representation as to the future or a commitment by the Authority to award or enter into any contract. The Association reserves the right to not award to the lowest or any tender or to discontinue this Procurement Competition at any time. Radius do not warrant or guarantee any quantity, volume or value of work through this contract and reserve the right to fulfil any part or all through alternative means. Radius have considered the use of Lots for this contract but do not believe the use of Lots are suitable in this instance as a priority for the Association is to create internal efficiencies in the management of this and similar contracts."
