Total Quantity or Scope

Please note: This notice is to inform the market of an upcoming procurement opportunity. The procurement will be managed via the Council's e-tendering system (In-tend). Call off contracts using the NEC Framework Contract are called Work Orders. The Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Framework is a framework agreement and therefore being selected a place on the framework does not guarantee the award of any work. A Work Order will describe the works/services to be supplied by the Supplier and will be prepared by the Client's Representative. All Work Orders will be awarded through either of the following: a direct award (ranking) or a quotation and selection procedure, detailed below. Call-offs valued at £30k and below - Awarded via Direct Award (ranking), or HCC will have the option to award via a Mini-Competition (Quotation and selection procedure). Call-offs valued at above £30k will be awarded via Mini-Competition (Quotation and selection procedure). Following the open tender procedure, six suppliers will be awarded a place on the framework and will be ranked according to their Price/Quality score. This ranking system will be used when awarding through the Framework via Direct Award. The Framework will not be available to other Local Authorities, it is for HCC use only.
