"description": "The Council wishes to appoint 2 bidding organisations (one main and one reserve) onto this framework for high level electrical lighting and power works. The main contractor on the framework, following this restricted supplier opportunity will be awarded all calls offs. If the main contractor is unable to undertake this order or refuses the order offer, then the order will be offered to the reserve contractor. The direct call offs will be 100% price. Each call off project must not exceed, but maybe less than the 'maximum rate' costs as identified in their original tender proposal. If you have opted in for the supplier incentive payments your % applied on the original framework submission will apply to all call offs. There may be a requirement for the Council to undertake a competitive call off competition for example to show value for money, in this situation both placed Contractors on the framework will be invited to take part in this competitive call off competition. The criteria for evaluations for any call off stage will be detailed within the documentation issued. Each supplier's bid for the call off competitive project must not exceed, but maybe less than the 'maximum rate' costs as identified in their original tender proposal. Any supplier who submits a bid which exceeds their 'maximum rate' costs will be removed from this call off. The competitive call off document award criteria will be deemed appropriate for that specific project. This will include individual weightings, to reflect the requirements, within the further competition documentation which may differ from the weightings used for the appointment on the Framework Agreement. Weightings to be applied to this further competition call-off can be either of the following: Price 0% -100% Quality 0% -100% This can be any percentage, 100% price or a mixture of quality and price. KPI's may be included in any off these calls and rebates will apply. If you have opted in for the SIP the % applied on the original framework submission will apply to all competitive call offs. The bidding organisation who submits the most acceptable bid for each call off competition will be awarded the contract to carry out that call off contract."
