PAN3428 - Supply of Precast Concrete (PCC) Products

A draft of the Contract and associated schedules is included in Appendix D. Suppliers should note that there will be no negotiations permitted on the Contract terms (Appendix D) prior to or after the Tender submission deadline date. Suppliers are deemed to accept the Contract terms as set out in this document and the Council reserves the right to reject a Tender which seeks to vary or qualify the terms of the Contract (in a manner not permitted in this document). The Council will use the information given on the CDP to assess the financial position of the Supplier to ensure they have the resources and stability to deliver the Services over the duration of the Contract. Where appropriate the Council will conduct a full financial evaluation of the organisation. Where this is not possible or where the initial outcome suggests the Supplier may not have the required financial resources or stability, the Council will give the Supplier the opportunity to respond to the Council’s concerns before reaching its final conclusion. This will consider the value of the Contract.

Suppliers MUST ensure they have fully read and understood the Council’s statement of requirements documented in Appendix B in full to satisfy themselves they can comply with the requirements documented before completion, noting that should you not comply you will have the opportunity in this section to document where you do not comply for consideration by the Council. Suppliers must answer all statements in Section B Part A document, in full. Responses to Functional Compliance & Method Statements will only be assessed on the basis of the statement for which the response is provided. Evaluators will not cross reference information from answers to other questions, regardless of its relevance or quality. Failure to respond to any question in this section will result in the Supplier receiving either a fail or a zero score for that question dependant on the criteria set out.
