Published requirement description

The AMRC North West as part of the University of Sheffield are tendering for multiple lots within an overarching

project to demonstrate the capability of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and smart technology usage cases to

reduce the carbon footprint of a manufacturing site. The project will raise awareness of the latest technology and will

be retro-fittable to legacy manufacturing facilities. The technology will be able to provide a tangible benefit to the

carbon footprint of a manufacturing site through data capture and visualisation and / or machine cognition.

Please note that two tenders associated with this project were ran concurrently. These are 3125/SW and

3126/SW. The two tenders have differing cost/quality weightings. In the contract notice it was advised that the University reserved the right not to award any lot or all lots.

Scope of Requirement:

The equipment / system is required to demonstrate how IIoT can be used in a manufacturing environment to

understand, influence, and change the key levers in carbon reduction. A range of technologies will be implemented

to understand energy usage, occupancy and asset parameters, environmental conditions, utilisation of micro grid

technology and visualisation through a user-friendly dashboard. The system will need to be supported or controllable

to evolve and integrate system adaptations and enlargement, to support the project goals of demonstrating the

potential benefits. The AMRC/University requires a warranty, delivery to site and on-site installation, commissioning,

and acceptance testing. The supplier needs to be able to maintain and demonstrate the ability to maintain the future

operation of the system. The AMRC/University requires a service and maintenance contract for the duration of the

manufacturer's warranty and to not invalidate the manufacturer's terms and conditions of warranty. Training and

technical support is required within the scope of the tender to assist and embed the use of the equipment/system.

The full technical specification was within the tender documentation.

What it takes to win
i

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

Lot distribution rule: Suppliers can submit bids for any lot that is appropriate to their product range or business. Tenders may be submitted for one, for several or for all of the lots.\nThere is no limit to the number of lots that one supplier can submit bids for. There is no limit to the amount of lots that the University can award to one supplier (i.e more than one lot may be awarded to the same tenderer or the Universty can award the tender as a one-stop shop lot). \nThe University reserves the right to make any award that may result from this Invitation to Tender on a single or multiple supplier award basis. More than one lot may be awarded to the same tenderer. The University reserves the right to award contracts combining several or all lots. Any Lots or groups of lots may be combined. The University reserves the right not to award any or all lots.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 21 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 2.1 points.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
