  6. Procurement Unit Kildare County Council New Procurement Procedure 2012 • We intend to replace the current procurement system with a Multi-Party Framework Agreement. Multi-Party Framework Agreement, what is it? • It is an agreement between Kildare Local Authorities and a specified number of qualified economic operators or contractors.

  7. Procurement Unit Kildare County Council The Framework • The Framework Agreement will be established for an initial period of 1 year (2012) with an option to extend for a further 3 years to the end of 2015. • A specified number of Contractors will be admitted on to the Framework (approximately 5 but it depends on number and quality of submissions).

  8. Procurement Unit Kildare County Council The Framework Stage One: Suitability Assessment Stage 1 will be a Suitability Assessment using a Suitability Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ). • Assessment of Tenderer’s Financial Capability and Technical Capability. • Combination of Pass/Fail criteria and Qualification criteria (i.e. weighted) • Tenders will be evaluated, scored and subsequently ranked.

  9. Procurement Unit Kildare County Council The Framework Stage Two: Invitation to Tender • Approx. 10 of top ranked tenderers from Stage One will be invited to tender for real and/or notional jobs for entry into the Framework (Stage 2) • Tenderers will be evaluated against specific Award Criteria (Price & Quality) and will be ranked. Note: The evaluation criteria for Stage 1 to be used in the Suitability Assessment Questionnaire should not be confused with the tender award criteria for Stage 2.

  10. Procurement Unit Kildare County Council The Framework in Operation • Up to 5 No. top ranked Tenderers will then be admitted onto the Framework. • For the duration of the Framework Agreement, only those Contractors that have been admitted to the Framework, will be invited to bid on all Upgrade of Group Water Scheme Works.

  11. Procurement Unit Kildare County Council How will work be awarded? • Works will be awarded by a Mini-Tender Competition between all of the members of the Framework (depending on the value of works). • There will be a requirement to re-submit rates on an annual basis. • The Framework will be tendered in December 2011 and will be advertised on www.etenders.gov.ie.
