Other Information

** PREVIEW NOTICE, please check Find a Tender for full details. ** The principal contracting authority (i.e. the Council of the Borough of Kirklees) is the only contracting authority that will enter into any framework agreement with the successful economic operators. The other contracting authorities listed in Section I.2 of this Notice above shall be permitted to use the Framework Agreement to call-off contracts in relation to the lot relevant to each individual contracting authority. In addition, the Framework Agreement may be used by any of the other "Local Authorities" (as defined under the Local Government Act 1972 (SI 1972/070)) within the Yorkshire and Humber Region. A map and list of the other Local Authorities permitted to use the Framework Agreement can be found in Appendix 2 of File 01 of the procurement documentation (available to download at https://yortender.eu-supply.com).The principal contracting authority considers that this Framework Agreement may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises ("SMEs"). However, any selection of economic operators will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement, and the Framework Agreement will be awarded on the basis of the most economically advantageous tender based on lowest price only. The award criteria is set out in the procurement documentation (available to download at https://yortender.eu-supply.com). With regards to the estimated total value of services for the entire duration of the Framework Agreement, please note the values stipulated in Section II.1.5 of this Notice above covers the potential spend of all the participating contracting authorities, throughout the duration of the Framework Agreement. Not withstanding the range of values stipulated in Section II.1.5, however, for the avoidance of doubt please note that: i) The estimates given in Section II.1.5 of this Notice are strictly estimated values only. ii) Any information supplied in the Tender Documents as to the likely volumes of services or the times when they are likely to be required are given purely as indication of past experiences of the contracting authorities. iii) Furthermore, please note that estimates given in Section II.1.5 of this Notice are based on third party estimates of anticipated future workloads during the Framework Period as at the date of this Notice, and the principal contracting authority gives no warranty as to the accuracy to said data. iv) The anticipated usage of this Framework Agreement is unknown at present. Tenderers should note that it is not possible to establish an exact future workload and it is therefore not possible to guarantee that all or any of the successful economic operators with whom the principal contracting authority enters into the Framework Agreement will in fact be called upon to execute Services on behalf of the principal contracting authority or any of the other contracting authorities. Unless otherwise specifically stated elsewhere in the Tender Documents, there is no minimum or maximum value/quantity of Services that may be ordered on any one occasion and the rates tendered must therefore reflect the likelihood of varying magnitude of Orders and types of Services v) No contracting authority is bound to enter into any Order or other contract following discussions or other representations and no contracting authority shall incur any liability in respect of any failure to enter into any Service Contract or in connection with the total volume, type of Services or value of Services anticipated by any of the economic operators or which any economic operator is asked to carry out.
