Other Information

This procurement was managed electronically via the Council's e-procurement system. To participate in this procurement, applicants must first be registered on the system at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/norfolkcc Full instructions for registration and use of the system can be found at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/norfolkcc/aspx/BuyerProfiles Once registered you will be able to see the procurement project under the ‘tenders’ section and ‘express an interest’ to view the documentation. If you encounter any difficulties whilst using the system you can contact the In-tend support team by phoning +44 8442728810 or e-mailing support@in-tend.co.uk The authority considered (pursuant to the Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012) whether to explicitly seek social value through this procurement, but has decided that it is not appropriate on this occasion as social value is embedded in the service specification. The authority also concluded that it is not necessary to consult about social value in this instance. The arrangement is multi-lotted and is open to multiple suppliers under each lot and is being let under the Light Touch Regime. The framework agreements differ from those let under the non-light touch regime in that the Council, exercising its flexibility, will open the framework agreement periodically for new applicants throughout its term and reserves the right to extend the framework from its 48 month initial term for an additional 48 months, in two period of 24 months. Contracts awarded under the framework may have a maximum total duration of 10 years. No contract awarded from the framework will be permitted to extend beyond 1 Mars 2037. The framework agreements are being let by Norfolk County Council as the Contracting Authority, but with the consent of Norfolk County Council, will be available for use by any District Council, any Public Sector body, any Educational establishment and NHS bodies operating in the geographical county of Norfolk or in any adjoining counties. The estimated value has been calculated based on the estimated annual levy payable by Norfolk County Council multiplied by the maximum length of the framework. We have estimated a value based on the assumption that all those organisations who have indicated they will use the framework will do so and added these figures together.
