What is being bought

Published requirement description

Parliament maintains a variety of contingency options which can be deployed in the event of a disruption to part or all of the Parliamentary Estate. These contingency options ensure the continuity of parliamentary business with a primary focus on maintaining critical, high-level business activities.

Various options exist which provide flexibility to respond to a range of scenarios. The plans identify venues where Parliament could be re-located to ensure that the business of Parliament can be carried out without interruption and with minimum disturbance to Members, Peers, their staff, staff of both Houses and visitors to the estate.

  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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