Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

East Dunbartonshire Council wants to appoint several contractors to a framework agreement, a pre-approved list of suppliers that can be called on for work. The work is drainage civil engineering across the council area, with an estimated value of £3,600,000 over a minimum of three years, plus an option to extend by up to 12 months.

What the buyer wants

• Carry out drainage civil engineering works throughout East Dunbartonshire • Respond to and deliver individual Work Orders issued by the council under the framework • Operate within a ranked framework alongside other appointed suppliers for at least three years, with an option to extend up to a further 12 months

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice does not list specific qualifying requirements, but the £3,600,000 estimated value, the multi-year ranked framework and the drainage civil engineering scope mean it is most likely aimed at firms with the capacity and track record to deliver civil engineering drainage works at scale, which may rule out smaller businesses.

Always check the tender documents.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
