Description

There is no commitment as to the usage, volume, or value of services required under this Contract. Any levels, or aggregate values of services, referred to are indicative only and shall not be binding on the Client. The Contract will consist of three lots, two geographical lots and a third lot specific to National Museums Northern Ireland.

Other Information

The values are estimates of the requirements and no level of business is guaranteed. The successful contractor's performance on the contract will be regularly monitored. Contractors not delivering on contract requirements is a serious matter. It means the public purse is not getting what it is paying for. If a contractor fails to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance they will be given a specified time to improve. If, after the specified time, they still fail to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance the matter will be escalated to senior management in Construction Procurement Delivery Supplies and Services Division for further action. If this occurs and the Contractors performance does not improve to satisfactory levels within the specified period, this can be considered grounds for termination of the contract at the Contractors expense as provided for in the Conditions of Contract. In lieu of termination, CPD may issue a Notice of Written Warning or a Notice of Unsatisfactory Performance. A supplier in receipt of multiple Notices of Written Warning or a Notice of Unsatisfactory Performance may in accordance with The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) be excluded from future public procurement competitions for a period of up to three years.
