Description

Southend on Sea City Council is carrying out this procurement exercise in the form of a FTS Restricted Tender for the Provision of Adaptation Works under a Framework Agreement within the boundaries of Southend on Sea City Council "the Works" in two lots: Lot 1 Primary Adaptation Suppliers and Lot 2 Secondary Adaptation Suppliers.

Candidates who feel that they are suitably qualified organisations may complete the requirements of the first stage for either the Lot 1 or Lot 2 competitions in order to qualify as shortlisted tenderers invited to Stage 2 -Tender stage of the procurement.

The applicant expressing an interest will complete the Selection Questionnaire (SQ) and the scored questionnaire for the lot they are applying for (Lot 1 or Lot 2).

Candidates who pass the SQ will have their responses to the Lot questionnaire assessed and scored as set out in the Evaluation Criteria below; this will create a ranking of the applicants for each Lot. The Council intend to invite the top-scoring 6-8 applicants to tender stage (for each lot) but reserve the right to invite fewer or more candidates as it sees fit or to invite none at all.
