GMCA Street Lighting Electrical Connections Framework Agreement 2020 - 2024
Main contract details
Services to be provided under the framework agreement will consist of street lighting electrical connections services (new connections, transfers and disconnections), including the erection and uprooting of lighting column, traffic sign pole, feeder pillar or illuminated traffic bollards, lantern/bracket installation or exchange, cut-out terminations and cabling installation works, and painting.
Contracts called-off from the framework agreement will be awarded on a cascade basis, with the tenderer submitting the Most Economically Advantageous Tender being appointed as the first provider to the relevant lot, which will be contacted in the first instance in respect of any service requirements. Should the first provider not have the capacity and/or capability and/or not be willing to provide the services then the second provider and third provider would be contacted in turn. Alternatively, contracting bodies accessing the framework agreement may re-open competition to all providers capable of meeting the requirement within the framework agreement via a ‘mini competition’ process within the applicable lot(s).
The services provided under the framework agreement will be made available to members and associate members of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) and other participating authorities and organisational bodies as named within this Contract Notice. The Invitation to Tender documentation contains further details on those organisations intending to use the framework agreement at its outset and indicative call-off quantities. None of the named organisations will however be obliged to procure through the framework agreement. Economic operators should note that inclusion on the framework agreement is not a guarantee that any call-off contracts will be awarded.
The framework agreement will initially run for a period of 2 years and will allow for 2 further periods of extension of 12 months each. The maximum duration of the framework agreement will be 4 years.
The closing date of Monday 24th August 2020 at 16:30 represents the deadline for the submission of final tender applications.
This Contract Notice was submitted for publication in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) on 30th June 2020 and published with reference number 2020/S 127-312105.
