Published requirement description

The BBC intends to establish a Framework Agreement of Suppliers who will deliver general systems delivery and integration services, in addition to specialist SAP product services. The BBC is acting on its own behalf and as agent BBC Commercial Holdings Group. The Framework Agreement is divided in to 2 separate Lots.

Tenderers may bid individually for one Lot, or both Lots - where they meet the relevant minimum standards.

The following is the expected total value of spend for each Lot on the Framework Agreement, for the full potential of Term (48 months). This includes the Initial Term (36 months) and Extension Period (12 months):

Lot 1 - Systems Delivery and Integration Services - General

Annual value range between: £4,000,000 - £5,000,000 (GBP)

Total value range between: £16,000,000 - £20,000,000 (GBP)

Lot 2 – SAP Product Specialist Services

Annual value range between: £4,000,000 - £5,000,000 (GBP)

Total value range between: £16,000,000 - £20,000,000 (GBP)

NB – the total value is not committed spend, and is therefore only an expectation of spend that could be made through the Framework Agreement. The total value includes spend anticipated from both the BBC and BBC Commercial Holdings Group.

Lots and requirements (2)Procurement structure

2 lots · all with a published value · win at most 2 of them · same evaluation weights on every lot

Every one of these 2 lots carries the same published figure, £20,000,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.

The Lot is targeted at bespoke development, quality assurance and testing of BBC internal facing systems.

The scope of the systems covered is therefore wide in terms of individual project size and function covered.

Providers could be engaged for complete end to end bespoke systems delivery and support work, as a long

discrete delivery capabilities at any part of the systems development product lifecycle.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 34 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3.4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Systems Delivery and Integration Services Framework” 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.

As stated in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The applicable review time limits shall be as stated in Regulations 92 and 93 Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

Publisher note: CIn the case of technology requirements, the BBC may involve its technology partner (Atos IT Solutions and Services Limited) to assist in the scoping and drafting of invitations to tender and/or the evaluation of tenders. However, the final decision as to which is the most economically advantageous (by reference to the award criteria) will be made by the BBC. The awarding authority reserves the right not to award a contract and to annul the procurement process at any stage. Tenders and all supporting documents must be priced in sterling and all payments will be made in sterling. The contract shall be subject to English law. The awarding authority does not bind itself to accept the lowest, or any tender and reserves the right to accept part of a tender unless the tenderer expressly stipulates otherwise in the tender document.
