EDC will evaluate PSQ submissions in accordance with the criteria stated in Appendix M of the ITP documentation. The 5 highest ranked and compliant suppliers for each Lot will be shortlisted to proceed to the Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage. EDC reserves the right to shortlist fewer suppliers if fewer than 5 suppliers meet the minimum participation conditions set out in the ITP and associated documentation. Stage 2 - Invitation to Tender (ITT) The ITT stage will require shortlisted suppliers to provide their proposed solution to deliver the required works, their commercial response and their social value offer. Full requirements will be set out in the ITT. Suppliers will be able to take part in mid-tender interviews to clarify their understanding of the specifications, objectives and expected outcomes, ensuring they are able to submit compliant and competitive bids. Following submission of ITT responses, EDC will evaluate proposals in accordance with the criteria set out in the ITT and associated documentation. EDC intend to select one 'preferred' supplier for each Lot. For the avoidance of doubt EDC may either appoint two different suppliers (one for each Lot), or one supplier for two Lots combined. The preferred supplier(s) will be appointed under a PCSA. Stage 3 - Final proposals Under the PCSA, the preferred supplier(s) will work with the design team to optimise the design through RIBA Stage 4 design process and procure the works through an open book process to achieve a fixed contract sum with an agreed risk premium. The supplier(s) will develop the Contractor Proposals (CPs) against the clients Employer's Requirements (ERs). EDC reserves the right to terminate discussions in the event that a fixed contract sum and final CPs cannot be agreed. The CP's and Contract Sum will be used by EDC to develop the Final Business Case (FBC) to be submitted to Central Government.
