Mini-Competition. Where the value of a requirement is above £7k, a Framework Public Body must undertake a mini-competition inviting all Contractors to tender for the work. DIRECT AWARD
Mini-Competition. 3.1. Framework Public Bodies reserve the right to hold a further competition with all of the Contractors to determine which Framework Contractor offers best value for money. This is as outlined in the Ordering Procedures and Requirements Template (see section 5 & 7 below) and in line with Schedule 5 - Standard Terms of Supply.
Mini-Competition. 3.1. DCC, when ordering competed services under the Framework Agreement shall:
Mini-Competition. 8.1 Without prejudice to Clause 7, at any time during the Framework Term, the Authority may identify Proposed Capital Works which it assesses (in its discretion) to have a value of two hundred and fifty thousand (£250,000) or more and which, in its sole discretion, it wishes to let under the terms of this Contract through a Mini-Competition process. The Authority reserves the right, at its discretion, to amend such process from time to time, whether to reflect best practice and/or Applicable Laws or otherwise as may be permitted by law.
Mini-Competition. An overview
Mini-Competition. For Lot 3, when a requirement for Depopulation Services arises, the Contracting Body shall consider the technical responses provided during the tender process, to determine and shortlist Framework Providers that are capable of providing the Services. This shall be based on the species, numbers of animals, and required turnaround time. For example, only Framework Providers who have indicated they have a solution suitable for bovines will be shortlisted for a requirement relating to bovine depopulation. Those Framework Providers that have a Depopulation solution that is potentially suitable shall then be invited to compete. An RFQ shall be sent to the shortlisted Framework Providers inviting them to respond by the required deadline. It is anticipated that the RFQ will include a pricing schedule and technical questions relating to the ability of the Framework Provider and their solution to deliver the Services. These may for example consider the following: Suitability of the Depopulation solution for the particular requirement Relevant and sufficient species and/or industry expertise and experience Any known conflict of interest Scoring criteria and weightings shall be provided in the RFQ. The Call-Off Contract shall be awarded to the highest scoring Framework Provider. If it is clear that only one Framework Provider has a solution that is suitable for the requirement, then the Contracting Body reserves the right to award the Call-Off Contract to that Framework Provider without undertaking a competitive exercise. All Call-Off Contracts shall be governed by the Call-Off Terms and Conditions The Contracting Body reserves the right to amalgamate debriefs and carry them out at contract management meetings. The Contracting Body shall nominate a responsible owner for monitoring and managing each individual Call-Off Contract. This shall be the contract manager. For Mini Competitions, e-tendering may be used, for example, Framework Providers may be invited by this portal: xxxxx://xxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xx.xx/. However it is anticipated that the majority of Mini Competitions will be undertaken via email. The Contracting Body shall send an RFQ to the Framework Providers’ nominated email addresses, giving details of the requirement and specifying a deadline for the receipt of offers. Framework Providers shall ensure that they have given Defra an up to date contact email address and it is their responsibility to regularly check emails for details of any Mini Competition op...
Mini-Competition. Where you cannot determine which supplier represents best value for money from the detail given in the tender submissions, or where any special terms are needed, you should conduct a further competition, providing all suppliers awarded to the Lot you require services to be delivered under, the opportunity to submit a proposal. When a purchasing authority re-opens competition then they may review the specification and update any elements as required. Trusts have the flexibility to alter the weightings provided, to better reflect their specific requirements. If the weightings are changed during further competition, from those in the original evaluation criteria, then you must clearly identify and publicise the updated weightings prior to tenderers submitting their responses to ensure transparency in the mini competition process. Further information and guidance on the options for award under this framework is available by contacting the Framework manager.
Mini-Competition. Each piece of work will be awarded through mini-competition under each Lot. Each job requirement will vary and we will specify the requirement for each specific job when running a mini competition. The Award Criteria for each contract will be identified within the Mini Competition Documentation but weightings will vary depending on the individual requirement
Mini-Competition. 3.1.1 This framework will be operated by mini competition amongst the 3 Framework Contractors.
Mini-Competition. Save where Direct Award applies Service Contracts will be awarded pursuant to a mini-competition. The process is outlined below: The active social care worker (or other equivalent) to produce a Service User profile (involving the person and family where possible) which will form part of the Service Contract to be issued to the successful provider. Proposed accommodation requirements will also be included in the information. All providers receive the same information upon which to form their proposals and are invited to submit an Expression of Interest – this should be a written submission demonstrating how they propose to deliver the support package (the evaluation will be based on meeting the support needs of the Service User). All information including the evaluation criteria (quality/price splits can range from 60/40, 70/30 or 80/20 and will be set for a specific mini-competition dependent on factors specific to the individual support package) is shared with providers at the beginning of the process. The evaluation panel may be made up of commissioners, active workers, family (where appropriate) and any other relevant professionals. The preferred option is for the evaluation panel to evaluate based on just a written submission. The panel will assess submissions against a published set of evaluation criteria (to ensure the best match of Service Provider is found for the service user). If family involvement is deemed appropriate a percentage of the evaluation criteria will be allocated to question(s) developed and evaluated with the assistance of family members. Interviews are to be carried out only if deemed appropriate and at the sole discretion of the Contracting Body. If conducting interviews, the evaluation panel will decide which providers to invite to interview by shortlisting the written submissions against the published set of evaluation criteria. If interviews are required, the panel will advise prospective Service Providers. The evaluation panel will produce and publish interview questions with a scoring rationale and weighting at the point the mini-competition process commences. If interviewing, the panel will carry out the interview process, assessing against the published set of evaluation criteria. The evaluation panel will select the Service Contract to the highest scoring Service Provider. Service Providers will then be informed of the outcome. If the highest ranked provider indicates they cannot meet the needs of the Service User after c...
