“Multi-party framework agreement contracts will be awarded primarily using the cascade solution, with mini tenders operating as required. Contracts can be...”
Multi-party framework agreement contracts will be awarded primarily using the cascade solution, with mini tenders operating as required. Contracts can be awarded through application of the cascade method, whereby contracts are awarded on foot of the original tenders to the first ranked firm admitted to the framework agreement. Where they are not able to deliver the contract, the next ranked firm will be approached moving in ranked order through the Framework Members until the contract is awarded. Through invitation to a mini-tender of all the firms admitted to the framework agreements. On each occasion, a Supplementary Request for Tender will be issued detailing the scope of requirements, the award criteria, a closing date and time and methodology for submission of responses.
Contracts will be drawn down as specified above across all categories listed as follows:
Lot 1 - Basic Science
Lot 2 - Science Data Collection
Lot 3 - Chemistry
Lot 4 - Physics
Lot 5 - Biology and Agricultural Science
Lot 6 - Science Resource
