Additional information: HOW THIS PROCESS WILL WORK. ### Open Procedure ### Prerequisites Appendix 1 Bids that fail to meet the minimum standard as denoted in Appendix 1 may be rejected. Bidders that fail to satisfy the Authority of meeting the minimum standards set out both economically and technically will be deemed ineligible and not have their bid further assessed. It is recommended the bidders asses Appendix 1 and satisfy themselves of their own compliance before completing the bidder response and pricing schedules. Following the receipt of your bid and the final deadline passes, your bid will be opened by the assessment panel. Where prerequisites have been applied, these will be assessed as the first stage of the evaluation. Failure to meet any prerequisite will result in your bid being immediately rejected. Upon satisfying all prerequisites your bid will be qualitatively assessed using the award criteria laid out in in the Conditions of Tender. If an e-Auction is applicable the Authority will contact you and offer the appropriate training and preparation. Following the conclusion of the evaluation you will be issued notification of either being successful or unsuccessful. This will be accompanied by a debrief letter advising you of your scores and if appropriate the scores of the winning bid, along with narrative as to how the scores were applied and what the characteristics and relative advantages of the winning bid were. ### Clarification Questions from Bidders Any questions which the Bidder wishes to raise in relation to this Tender should be made via the e-sourcing portal messaging system.
