The DPS is a two stage process and will be conducted in accordance with Regulation 34 of The Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Firstly, organisations apply by completing the Council’s online pre-qualification questionnaire (‘PQQ’). Organisations which satisfy the pre-determined selection requirements set out in the PQQ will then be admitted to the DPS. Individual orders throughout the duration of the DPS will be awarded via competition during the second stage. Organisations admitted to the DPS should note that they won’t be invited to tender for competition(s) until they have signed and returned the DPS Agreement to the Council accordingly. The pattern and volume of demand for Warehouse Packaging may be subject to change and it is stressed that there are no undertakings concerning likely volume of demand. For the avoidance of doubt, each organisation admitted to the DPS acknowledges that, no form of exclusivity or volume guarantee is guaranteed by the Council for the Warehouse Packaging and that the Council is at all times entitled to enter into other contracts and arrangements with other organisations for the provision of any or all warehouse packaging which are the same or similar. Please note the Council is under no obligation to run a set number of competitions during the validity of the DPS. For guidance only, an estimated annual quantity (where known) is given in the Specification of the procurement documents. The Council does not undertake to purchase that quantity and equally the successful organisations should be prepared to supply quantities in excess of the figures shown. The anticipated annual expenditure, for the Council on Warehouse Packaging is presently circa £65,000 GBP per annum. The estimated annual range is between £30,000 to £150,000. An essential ingredient of the successful working arrangements for each individual order will be regular dialogue between the parties to ensure the smooth running and achievement of the objectives specified for each order respectively. The DPS will commence on the 1st January 2017 and will be for a core period of 1 year with the option for extensions up to a total further period of 3 years on a yearly basis. 12:00 noon on 2nd December 2016 was the earliest date when the Council can begin to evaluate applications and admit organisations to the DPS. Please note that organisations can apply to join the Council’s DPS at any time during its validity if they satisfy the selection criteria and none of the grounds for exclusion apply. So, whilst it is open to any organisation to apply to join the DPS after 12:00 noon on 2nd December 2016, those organisations who wish to participate in the earliest competitions will be ...
