The intention of the SHAP Board is to appoint a panel of suppliers from June 2019 for up to 5 years, total value sub OJEU. A panel of suppliers will be appointed based on a 40% price/ 60% quality selection. The top 3 suppliers for each role will be appointed to the panel provided that they score at least 60% of the available marks on each of price and quality.

As the need arises and funding is secured, contracts will be awarded by the SHAP Board to suppliers on the panel according to the match of the strength of their expertise, experience and skills against the project requirements.
