Published requirement description

The scope for this procurement process is to establish an overarching Design services framework agreement with a small number of competitively selected design consultants. Bromford are moving towards ‘standard’ house types, however, without in-house capability we will still need the services of designers to carry out feasibility studies and site appraisals plus support the planning process and re-design where required to meet planning requirements. The framework will be divided into Lots covering Project Architect, Project Structural Engineer and Project Civil Engineer.

Lot 1 - Project Architect (below 50 units) for Feasibility, Planning and Detailed Design stages. Inclusive of site appraisal, planning pack, site-specific working drawings and ongoing support through the construction stage.

Lot 2 - Project Architect (above 50 units) for Feasibility, Planning and Detailed Design stages. Inclusive of site appraisal, planning pack, site-specific working drawings and ongoing support through the construction stage.

Lot 3 - Project Structural Engineer for Feasibility and Detailed Design stages. Inclusive of preliminary information, detailed designs and ongoing support through the construction stage.

Lot 4 - Project Civil Engineer for Feasibility, Planning and Detailed Design stages. Inclusive of site appraisal, planning pack, site-specific detailed design and ongoing support through the construction stage.

What it takes to win

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

  • Quality: 60
  • Price: 40
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Design Services Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 12 suppliers, not a single contract.

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