Civil & Structural Engineer Consultancy Services Framework

Tender description

The intention of this Competition is for the University to establish a multi-supplier Framework Agreement for the procurement of Civil & Structural Engineer Consultancy Services on projects with a pre-tender estimate construction value less than £10,000,000 (£10m GBP) excluding VAT. It is envisaged that the Civil & Structural Engineer Consultancy Services Framework Agreement will be awarded to three (3) Consultants. It is the University’s intention that Civil & Structural Engineer Consultancy Services for projects with a pre-tender estimate construction value of £10,000,000 (£10m GBP) or greater will be procured via stand-alone procurements outside this Framework Agreement. The University intends to award Call-off Contracts from this Framework Agreement for projects with a pre-tender estimate construction value less than £3,000,000 (£3m GBP) without reopening competition to the Consultant who achieved the highest overall score at the ITT stage and is considered to provide the most economically advantageous tender. It is anticipated that individual Call-off Contracts under the scope of this Framework Agreement that have a pre-tender estimate construction value between £3,000,000 (£3m GBP) and less than £10,000,000 (£10m GBP) will be the subject of a mini-competition between all the successful Consultants awarded this Framework Agreement. The Civil & Structural Engineer Consultancy Framework Agreement scope of services shall be aligned to the RIBA Plan of Work 2013 available from www.ribaplanofwork.com. Full details of the scope of services will be available in the ITT.
