Mechanical and Electrical Consultancy Services Framework - AWARD

It is anticipated that services to be delivered under this Framework will be part funded by the European Regional Development Fund Programme 2014 to 2020: The Contracting Authority (Lancaster University) is inviting Economic Operators to participate in this Restricted procurement process with the aim of establishing an Mechanical and Electrical Consultancy Services Framework to support the Authority's projected capital spend of over 159,000,000 GBP over the next four years. \n \n For full details, please refer to the procurement documents available at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/lancaster. \n \n Economic Operators may apply for any or all Lots (1-3). If less than four Economic Operators meet the requirements to get on each Framework Lot, the Contracting Authority reserves the right to proceed to establish the Framework with less than four Economic Operators on each Lot or to cancel the procurement of that Lot. The maximum number of Economic Operators awarded a place on each Lot may increase only where two or more Economic Operators have tied scores, and are jointly placed in the last position (fourth) in respect of each Lot. \n \n The Contracting Authority will host a 'Supplier Information Day' Friday 22nd April 2016 commencing 10.30am at Lancaster University, Bailrigg Campus, Lancaster, LA1 4YW, UK. Attendance is optional, however, it is highly recommended that attendees have read all published procurement documents ahead of attending the Supplier Information Day. The aim of this session is to provide attendees with an overview of the University, their requirements, the procurement process, the e-tendering system, and to respond to any questions attendees may wish to ask about any aspect of the tender or process. \n \n Questions (anonymised) and their answers will be documented and shared publically via the In-Tend clarification function. The expected duration is approximately two hours. Attendees will be able to explore the campus grounds afterwards but this is likely to be unaccompanied. A maximum of two attendees per Economic Operator is permitted to attend. \n \n Suppliers must register your intention to attend via the In-Tend 'correspondence' function by close of business Tuesday 19th April 2016.
