Cartrefi Cymunedol Gwynedd (CCG) is seeking expressions of interest from suitably experienced and qualified consultants in order to establish a series of single supplier framework agreements. CCG's requirement for the services will be divided into lots covering different areas of expertise.

Additionally, there will be 1 lot which will be multi-disciplinary. The proposed lots are as cover the following broad areas of expertise:

Lot 1 – Civil engineering consultancy services

Lot 2 – Structural Engineering consultancy services

Lot 3 – Mechanical and electrical engineering consultancy services

Lot 4 – Architectural consultancy service

Lot 5 – Building surveying consultancy services

Lot 6 – Building maintenance/preservation consultancy services

Lot 7 – Party wall consultancy services

Lot 8 – Environmental consultancy services

Lot 9 – Multi discipline consultancy services (which may cover elements of the consultancy services covered by lots 1 to 8 inclusive)

CCG intends to enter into separate single-supplier framework agreements with each of the successful consultants under each lot following the submission and evaluation of tenders.

Consultants will be appointed based on the most economically advantageous terms offered to CCG by reference to technical ability and quality to deliver the service, as well as pricing proposals.

Following the completion of the pre-qualification questionnaire evaluation process, CCG intends to invite the ten highest scoring consultants from each lot to submit full tender responses. Further detail on the tender process will be set out in the invitation to tender in due course.

Following the completion of the tender process, CCG intends to appoint between three and five consultants per lot.

Each framework agreement shall be for a period of four years and consultants should note that (a) call-off contracts issued pursuant to each framework agreement may naturally extend beyond this point; and (b) CCG will not guarantee any minimum level or value of such call-off contracts.

Further details of the CCG's requirements shall be set out in the pre-qualification questionnaire and invitation to tender (in due course).

Organisations expressing an interest must request a pre-qualification questionnaire and return it completed with any associated documents to the address stated in the pre-qualification questionnaire by 17:00 on the 11.10.2013.
