Distribution Network Operator lots will be Energetics IDNO Sites (Lot 3), IPNL (Independent

intention to appoint a minimum of 3 providers to each lot subject to there being sufficient

tenderers satisfying the criteria laid down within the tender process.

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

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

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.
