The ICB set an affordability threshold for each lot within the Procurement. Bidders who submitted a bid over the maximum contract values in the procurement documents, were not to achieve the score of a pass. Their bid was to be regarded as non-compliant and be a failed bid and the rest of the bid would be rejected and the scoring questions in each lot would not be evaluated. This was checked during the preliminary stages of the evaluation during the compliance checks. There was not a competition on price.
As part of this procurement process, the Authority was intending to identify one provider for each of the 19 contracts.
To express interest and participate in the tender, providers needed to register and apply via the Atamis e-sourcing portal https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome.
