2. Procurement Process

This requirement will follow a “Contested Grants” process which is

used for the award of grants which fall under Part B of the Public

Procurement Directives.

The opportunity has been advertised widely and will be fair, open

and transparent in line with our broader public sector obligations.

The process will comprise 8 separate competitions with one relating

to each of the policy areas. It will be aligned to the “Open

Procedure” and have only one tender stage with no requirement to

pre-qualify.

2. Procurement Process

Each competition will be run independently from the others, with a separate bidding, evaluation and award process in each area. Bidders will be permitted to take part in the competition for more than one policy area.

The bids in each policy area will be evaluated by separate teams that include representation from the relevant policy area.

The evaluation criteria for each policy area are shown within the respective Descriptive Document which is available to download via the eSourcing portal once you have registered and on the Contracts Finder portal. This also explains the process for asking Clarification Questions that you may have during the application period.
