Tender: Electrical Works Framework Agreement – Liverpool City Region (48‑month, Minor & Major Works)

About

Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA)/Merseytravel is seeking suppliers to establish a closed, multi‑supplier Electrical Works Framework Agreement to deliver electrical works across its estate over a 48‑month period. The procurement is split into two lots — Lot 1: Minor Electrical Works (one supplier to be awarded) and Lot 2: Major Electrical Works (five suppliers to be awarded) — and will follow a two‑stage Competitive Flexible Procurement with a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) stage followed by an Invitation to Tender (ITT). For Stage 1, the five highest‑scoring compliant suppliers (Lot 1) and the ten highest‑scoring compliant suppliers (Lot 2) will be invited to Stage 2; Stage 1 checks include debarment list screening and review against information on the Central Digital Platform. Stage 1 assessment includes criteria such as financial and operational capacity, LV maintenance programme or relevant experience, Ultimo license and subcontractor management; Stage 2 evaluation weights include price (30% for both lots) alongside performance, scenario‑based responses, health & safety, social value and other lot‑specific technical criteria. The Authority may refine award criteria under Section 24 of the Procurement Act 2023, and subject to budget call‑offs may be made by either LCRCA or Merseytravel; no preliminary market engagement was undertaken.
