The Contracting Authority does not intend to include a sub-contract clause as part of community benefits (as per Section 25 of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014) in this contract for the following reason:
It will be encouraged for prime contractors to advertise sub-contracting opportunities via PCS, however it will not be mandated as use of PCS to advertise sub-contracting opportunities is not intended to cut across supply chain arrangements that the prime contractor may already have in place. The PIN responses and sub-contracting pattern have evidenced an established sub-contracting network. Whilst it does represent best practice, use of PCS in this instance is unlikely to add any additional value and may delay mobilisation.
The Contracting Authority does not intend to include any community benefit requirements in this contract for the following reason:
Due to the value of each of the lots being fairly low with a maximum lot value of 600K GBP and due to the variety of surveys included within the framework it is not expected any supplier will tender for more than half the number of surveys, it is expected that due to volumes of work the majority of suppliers within each lot will be used. Therefore, no supplier will be delivering a significant % of the overall framework value as such community benefits have not been included in this tender.
