The successful Service Provider awarded the Contract will be responsible for providing the service for Derby City Council and Derby Homes. The procurement will be run under the Competitive Flexible Procedure. This will consist of two (2) stages: Stage 1 - Invitation to Participate This will be the PSQ stage that suppliers complete to be set up on the Central Digital Platform such as their economic and financial standing and their technical/ professional ability. The Council will also ask scored and weighted questions to arrive at a shortlist of a maximum of the five highest scoring suppliers to take to Stage 2. Stage 2 - Invitation to Submit Final Tenders Suppliers successful from Stage 1 will be invited to submit their tenders which will consist of their pricing, quality and social value methodologies. Due to the potential impact of the Local Government Reorganisation this value may rise from Year 3. Therefore, the total contract value may rise to PS10,504,120.29 (Excluding VAT) PS12,604,944.36 (Including VAT). These figures are estimations and due to only being in the early stages of the process the Council cannot give any commitment on these figures but would like to build scope into the Contract should the need arise. If Suppliers are successful and invited to Stage 2, they will be required to demonstrate how the additional requirements could be accommodated and to provide indicative pricing for potential future increases in provision. This information will not be scored but will be used to inform forward planning and ensure the Contract remains scalable and flexible.
