What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Council wishes to establish a Framework Agreement for the provision of Enforcement Agency Services for Unauthorised EncampmentsThere is a requirement to:

  • Conduct the initial site visit to the unauthorised encampment (UE) with the intention of determining the number of occupiers, who they are (family names) and any other relevant details, conducting a Welfare Needs Assessment on the occupiers (with regards to medical and schooling needs), reporting back to the Council and completing relevant paperwork.
  • Serving of relevant documents / legal papers on the members of the UE to direct their departure from the land – this may be common law notices or notices under statute, or Court orders. This will normally take place on the same day as the initial site visit.
  • Undertaking a contact visit to the UE occupiers as required by the Council.
  • Supervise, direct and progress the eviction should a formal eviction be necessary.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 60 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Framework Agreement for the Provision of Enforcement Agency Services…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

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