Description

PLEASE ENSURE YOU ALSO CAREFULLY AND FULLY READ THE MORE DETAILED INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE CONTRACT NOTICE, WHICH IS PROVIDED AS AN ATTACHMENT TO THIS NOTICE

Crown Commercial Service as the Contracting Authority is putting in place a Pan Government Collaborative
Framework Agreement for use by UK public sector bodies identified at VI.3 of the Contract Notice (and any future successors to these organisations), which include Central Government Departments and their Arm's Length Bodies and Agencies, Non Departmental Public Bodies, NHS bodies and Local Authorities.
The above Public Sector Bodies have a need for the professional management, advice guidance, negotiation and assistance on land, property and estates issues.
The Services covered are divided into the following Lots:
1) National;
2) Regional Panels:
Regional Panel 2A - East Anglia,
Regional Panel 2B - East and West Midlands,
Regional Panel 2C - London and South East England,
Regional Panel 2D - North East England,
Regional Panel 2E - North West England and North Wales, Regional Panel 2F - Northern Ireland,
Regional Panel 2G - Scotland,
Regional Panel 2H - South Wales and South West England;
Lot 3 Vertical Real Estates (VRE);
Lot 4 Facilities Management and Property Services (Procurement Managed Service).
Potential Providers have the opportunity to bid for all or any combination of the 4 Lots. Where a Potential Provider is successful in Lot 1 and Lot 2 the Potential Provider will only be awarded a place on Lot 1. Potential Providers have the opportunity to bid for all or any combination of Regional Panels in Lot 2. The maximum number of Regional Panels that a Potential Provider will be awarded is 3. Where a Potential Provider is successful in more than 3 Regional Panels the Potential Provider will be awarded only 3 according to the Potential Provider's order of preference. In this instance the next ranking Potential Provider will take its place in the other Regional Panels.
Potential Providers that are bidding independently for Lots 1 and or Lot 2 should not also bid for these Lots as a member of a Group of Economic Operators. Potential Providers doing so will be required to withdraw the independent bid or the bid may be considered to be non-compliant or the Authority may require the Potential Providers place in the Group of Economic Operators to be removed. For the avoidance of doubt, where any Potential Provider decides to bid both independently and as part of a consortia, the Authority reserves the right to exclude any bid where it has sufficiently plausible indications that the bid distorts competition.
The Authority reserves the right to Award all Lots or any combination thereof. The Lots may be awarded independently and at different times e.g. if the Authority were to be facing a potential challenge for Lot 4, the Authority would still award (following the conclusion of the mandatory standstill period) the other Lots. The Authority would then award Lot 4 at a later date.
