Description

The Authority’s Specialist and Autonomous Mobility (SAM) intends to set-up a ‘SAM Experimentation Framework Agreement (EFA)’ to provide the following: a. The purchase of small numbers of items (10 or less per item) to use for ‘Experimentation’ purposes (for example to trial to prove concepts and what items can best provide for them); b. Purchase of follow-up orders of some or all of these items when the Experimentation has identified item(s) suitable for follow-on purchases to use as ‘Interim Solutions’ or for further ‘Experimentation’, whilst any possible ‘Core Requirement’ identified via the ‘Experimentation’ is procured outside of the SAM EFA; and c. To enable the Authority to procure support to the activities associated with (a) and (b) above (for example, support to trials) that may take place either in the UK or abroad. Note: The Authority recognises that not all suppliers are able to provide such support and whilst suppliers unable to provide support are encouraged to source it via other suppliers, the Authority can be exception, source support activity via other means and you will not be excluded from having a place on the SAM EFA if you cannot provide this service.
