Invitation to tender.
Special notices and instructions to tenderers.
For the supply of packing material and boxes.
1. Introduction.
1.1 These Notices and Instructions provide guidance to invited Tenderers.
1.2 These notices and instructions relate to the attached invitation to
tender (ITT) reference no HA294/004/680 for the supply of packing material
and boxes. Their purpose is to provide guidance and explain certain
aspects of the Authority’s requirement so that the Tenderer is fully
conversant with the main elements and can respond with a compliant tender.
1.3 The reverse auction process is intended to allow each tenderer the
opportunity to reduce their offered price through to the point where none
wish to offer a lower price for the supply of packing material and boxes.
2. Reverse auction.
2.1 Purpose.
2.1.1 The Authority intends to conduct a reverse auction for the supply of
packing material and boxes as described in the invitation to tender (ITT)
and schedule of requirements (SoR). This requirement consists of one
individual Lot.
Note:
Prior to receiving notification of their eligibility to participate in the
reverse auction, and receiving training to enable such participation from
the Authority’s Auction Service provider, tenderers should be aware that:
1. Following receipt of ITT responses and their evaluation by the
Authority, it may become necessary for the packing material and boxes
requirement to be divided up into more Lots or fewer Lots than the single
Lot intended at present. If a decision is taken to either increase or
reduce the number of lots in the reverse auction, the Authority shall
advise all compliant Tenderers of any revisions made. Tenderers shall then
be given the opportunity to confirm that the unit price(s) and associated
overall price submitted within their ITT response remain unchanged, or to
offer revised price(s) accordingly.
2. Where a requirement involves more than one lot from the outset it may
become necessary for the Authority, following its receipt and evaluation
of ITT responses, to amend the content of individual lots by transferring
supply line items between any of the lots involved in the competition. If
a decision is taken to amend the content of the Lots included in the
Reverse Auction, the Authority will advise all compliant Tenderers of any
revisions made. Tenderers shall then be given the opportunity to confirm
that the unit price(s) and associated overall price submitted within their
ITT response remain unchanged, or to offer revised price(s) accordingly.
3. It may become necessary for the Authority to remove supply line items
from the Reverse Auction if, on receipt and evaluation of ITT responses,
it is found there are items that Tenderers are unable to tender for. If a
decision is taken to remove supply line items from the Reverse Auction,
the Authority will advise all compliant Tenderers of any revisions made.
Tenderers shall then be given the opportunity to confirm that the
remaining unit price(s) and associated overall price submitted within
their ITT response remain unchanged, or to offer revised price(s)
accordingly.
2.1.2 Per lot: it is intended that the only circumstance in which a
reverse auction shall not take place is if fewer than 2 compliant Tenders
are received in response to the attached ITT. The reverse auction is a
process conducted using computers connected via the Internet in which
those Tenderers submitting a compliant response to the ITT are invited in
electronic competition to offer a lower firm price than the starting price
posted by the Auction Service Provider, acting under instruction from the
Authority. Acceptance by the Authority of an electronic offer shall be
subject to the terms and conditions of the ITT.
2.1.3 It is expected that the Ministry of Defence shall benefit from
improved competition by the use of a reverse auction and that Tenderers
shall benefit from improved knowledge about market pricing.
2.2 Process.
2.2.1 Tenders received in response to the attached ITT shall be assessed
for compliance with the requirements of the ITT. Any tenderer whose
submitted response (including acceptable product samples where requested)
is not fully compliant with the requirements of the ITT shall be
ineligible to participate in the reverse auction and ineligible for any
contract award.
2.2.2 Whilst innovative proposals are encouraged in response to the
attached ITT, Tenderers must ensure that they submit such proposals in
addition to a response which is priced in full compliance with the
requirements of the ITT. Should an innovative proposal be received that
the Authority wishes to consider, then it reserves the right to offer any
other participating Tenderers the opportunity to also submit a revised ITT
response priced on the basis of the innovative proposal which has been put
forward.
2.2.3 The Authority shall notify the date and scheduled start / finish
time of the Reverse Auction to compliant Tenderers sufficiently well in
advance for them to receive training to participate in the auction. The
reverse auction shall be conducted by Intenda (contact Mr Jurgen Stringer,
telephone: +44 8454683632, or fax: +44 8450740777) on behalf of the
Authority.
2.2.4 Please note that to participate in the reverse auction, tenderers
must have access to the internet and one of the following browsers:
— Internet explorer 7 and above,
— Mozilla firefox,
— Google chrome,
— Apple safari.
Training to enable Tenderers to log on to the Intenda’s Website and to
participate in the Reverse Auction shall be provided by Intenda shortly
(probably 2 to 3 working days) before the event is scheduled to take
place. To maintain website security Tenderers shall be issued with a
username and password by Intenda that allows the viewing of information on
the relevant Web pages, and submission of price bids after the Reverse
Auction starts but before its end point. Intenda shall conduct the Reverse
Auction on its standard terms and conditions of business, which can be
viewed on its Website. After logging on, Intenda’s Website requires
tenderers to positively indicate on a screen acceptance of its standard
terms and conditions of business, before gaining viewing access and / or
participating in the reverse auction bidding process.
2.2.5 Per lot: intenda acting under instruction from the Authority shall
use the lowest overall price submitted by a compliant tenderer, as the
starting price in the reverse auction. The identity of the company whose
price formed the starting price shall not be disclosed. Any price offer
made during the course of the reverse auction which, at the time the bid
is made, becomes the lowest price received shall be disclosed to other
tenderers.
2.2.6 Per lot: compliant tenderers shall have the opportunity to view the
starting prices on Intenda’s Website one working day (from 10:00 hours
onwards) prior to the date on which the reverse auction is scheduled to
take place, but shall not be able to make any revised bid until the start
of the reverse auction. Each tenderer shall also be able to see their own
price(s), their own overall price and, in comparison to the other
compliant tenderer(s), their individual ranking for the lot. Tenderers are
strongly encouraged to review their own price(s) and own overall price
shown on Intenda’s Website, in order to confirm to their satisfaction that
these details accurately reflect the price(s) submitted in their ITT
response. Should an individual Tenderer identify pricing inaccuracy, they
must immediately report this inaccuracy to Intenda for them to investigate
in consultation, if necessary, with the Authority.
2.2.7 Per lot: during the reverse auction, where the tenderer has
submitted a compliant ITT response, they may bid a lower price offer
electronically in competition with other Tenderers in “real time”. Each
tenderer shall be able to see their individual ranking, in comparison to
the other compliant tenderer(s), throughout the auction. No maximum bid
decrement (i.e. reduction in line item price) shall be applied in the
reverse auction. No minimum bid decrement (i.e. reduction in line item
price) shall be applied in the reverse auction.
2.2.8 Per lot: in addition to a compliant Tenderers own price(s) and
individual ranking, Intenda Website shall display the lowest overall price
offered (by an individual tenderer) for the lot, and also the lowest price
bid for each of those line items (which may either consist of a single
item or a combined group of items) forming the lot (irrespective of which
tenderer has bid it). For tenderers, it is very important to note that
although the “lowest overall price” might be higher than the sum total of
the individual line item prices shown on the screen, this “lowest overall
price” is the figure from which any contract award may result. In
addition, for checking purposes, each tenderer shall be able to see the
current value of their own overall price, which they have bid for the lot.
Any change in the lowest price bid for a line item and, where affected,
the “lowest overall price” or a Tenderers individual ranking shall be
reflected on Intenda Website shortly after it has been submitted.
2.2.9 Intenda's Website shall also indicate the time remaining to the end
of the auction, after which no more bid may be placed. Any bids submitted
in the final two minutes of the auction shall automatically extend the
auction as necessary to ensure that there is always at least two minutes
remaining to allow tenderers to review their position and enter a lower
bid if they so wish.
2.2.10 In case of difficulty or technical breakdown during the reverse
auction, tenderers should advise Intenda immediately by telephone.
Tenderers shall then be able to submit price offers by telephone that may
be asked to be confirmed in writing (preferably by fax), and which Intenda
shall enter during the auction process. Following notification from a
tenderer of difficulty or technical breakdown encountered during the
reverse auction Intenda may, in their sole discretion, either manually
extend the duration of the reverse auction, or suspend and not re-open the
reverse auction, until the difficulty or technical breakdown has been
satisfactorily resolved. In the event that Intenda have to either manually
extend or suspend the Reverse Auction, a notice shall be posted on the
auction page of the Website to advise Tenderers accordingly and shall
inform Tenderers once the difficulty or technical breakdown has been
satisfactorily resolved.
2.2.11 In case of unforeseen difficulty arising during the reverse
auction, which need not necessarily be notified by a tenderer, Intenda
may, in their sole discretion, either manually extend the duration of the
reverse auction, or suspend and not re-open the reverse auction, until the
difficulty has been satisfactorily resolved. In the event that Intenda
have to either manually extend or suspend the reverse auction, a notice
shall be posted on the auction page of their website to advise Tenderers
accordingly and shall inform them once the difficulty has been
satisfactorily resolved.
2.2.12 Immediately following closure of the reverse auction, there shall
be a ten minute period during which tenderers may contact Intenda by
telephone if they have experienced an exceptional technical problem during
the closing stages of the auction. If Intenda in their sole discretion are
satisfied that there are justifiable grounds for re-opening the reverse
auction they shall post a notice on the auction page of their website and
telephone tenderers to this effect within thirty minutes of the closure of
the auction, and re-open the reverse auction from the time of the posting
of that notice for a period of ten minutes to allow Tenderers to review
their position and enter a lower bid if they so wish. Any bids received in
the final 2 minutes of the re-opened auction shall automatically extend
the auction, as if the auction had continued without interruption, as
necessary to ensure that there is always at least two minutes remaining to
allow Tenderers to review their position and enter a lower bid if they so
wish. Immediately after the ten-minute period, during which Tenderers may
contact Intenda by telephone if they have experienced an exceptional
technical problem during the closing stages of the auction, has ended, and
no such problem has been reported, then a notice formally confirming that
the reverse auction remains closed shall be posted by Intenda on the
auction page of their Website. Tenderers may alternatively obtain
confirmation that the Reverse Auction remains closed by telephoning
Intenda.
2.2.13 Per lot: tenderers are under no obligation to participate in the
reverse auction or to reduce the price offered in their ITT response. It
is the Authority’s intention, however, that if any contract results from
the attached ITT, it would be by accepting the lowest price offered for
all of the requirement forming the Lot during the Contract period stated
in the ITT, inclusive of option periods. (Per lot: this being the lowest
overall price calculated for each compliant tenderer using their lowest
bid in the reverse auction for each line item or, where no valid bid is
received for a line item in the reverse auction, the price offered in
their ITT response).
2.2.14 Per lot: any new valid overall total price offered by a tenderer
shall automatically be ranked in the auction. A new valid overall total
price shall only receive a ranking higher than that of an existing overall
total price bid by a tenderer if it is better than that existing bid. A
new valid overall total price offered by a Tenderer that equals an
existing overall total price shall be ranked behind that existing bid.
2.2.15 Per lot: each compliant tenderer may be provided with a spreadsheet
by Intenda, prior to the date on which the reverse auction event is
scheduled to take place. This spreadsheet would show all the unit
price(s), and the overall price, submitted by the Tenderer in their ITT
response. Following closure of the reverse auction, all tenderers would be
required to amend their copy of this spreadsheet to insert, where
applicable, revised unit price details against each individual line item
and / or time-period of the requirement forming the lot. No unit price(s)
inserted on to the spreadsheet would exceed the unit price(s) initially
offered by the tenderer in their ITT response. The total value of the
completed spreadsheet would be required to match the lowest price offered
by the tenderer for each individual element of the requirement forming the
lot either in their ITT response or during the reverse auction. Each
tenderer would be required to return the completed spreadsheet to Intenda
within two working days of the reverse auction event having taken place.
2.2.16 Per lot: any contract resulting from the attached ITT shall be
awarded by written acceptance from a Commercial Officer, acting for the
Authority, within twenty working days of completion of the reverse
auction. Tenderers must note that bids made during the reverse auction are
provided on the understanding that the price offer shall remain open for
acceptance by the Authority within this period of time.
2.2.17 Where a requirement is being offered as several lots, this may
result in several contracts being awarded. In the event that the lowest
price is offered for more than one lot from a compliant tenderer, then the
Authority may award one single contract incorporating all relevant lots to
that tenderer. Tenderers may only be awarded a contract for those lots
where they have previously submitted a response that is fully compliant
with the requirements of the ITT.
2.2.18 Per lot: if none of the prices offered in the ITT response and none
of the subsequent bids in the reverse auction is lower than the
Authority’s undisclosed “reserve price”, then the Authority reserves the
right not to proceed with award of any contract from this invitation to
tender.
2.2.19 The Authority reserves the right to amend or alter this process at
any time up to and including the reverse auction itself, but has no
advance intention to do so. If any amendment or alteration to the process
is made, then the Authority will notify Tenderers accordingly.
2.2.20 A copy of the latest reverse auction code of conduct agreed between
the Authority and Industry can be obtained by contacting the MoD Auctions
Team on telephone: 03067983162.

of any framework agreement awarded, subject to possible redactions at the
discretion of Government procurement service. The terms of the proposed
framework agreement will also permit a public sector contracting
authority, awarding a contract under this framework agreement, to publish
the text of that contract, subject to possible redactions at the
discretion of the contracting authority. Further information on

If the Contracting Authority decides to enter into a framework agreement
with the successful supplier, this does not mean that there is any
guarantee of subsequent contracts being awarded. Any expenditure, work or
effort undertaken prior to contract award is accordingly a matter solely
for the commercial judgement of potential suppliers. Any orders placed
under this framework agreement will form a separate contract under the
scope of this framework between the supplier and the specific requesting

VI.4.2)  Lodging of appeals
Precise information on deadline(s) for lodging appeals: The Authority will
incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point
information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers.
Applicants who are unsuccessful shall be informed by the Authority as soon
as possible after the decision has been made as to the reasons why the
applicant was unsuccessful. If an appeal regarding the award of the
contract has not been successfully resolved, The Public Contracts
Regulations 2006 (SI 2006 No. 5) provide for aggrieved parties who have
been harmed or are at risk of harm by breach of the rules to take legal
action. Any such action must be brought within the applicable limitation
period. Where a contract has not been entered into, the Court may order
the setting aside of the award decision or order the authority to amend
any document and may award damages. If the contract has been entered into
the Court may, depending on the circumstances, award damages, make a
declaration of ineffectiveness, order the Authority to pay a fine, and/or
order that the duration of the contract be shortened. The purpose of the
standstill period referred to above is to allow the parties to apply to
the Courts to set aside the award decision before the contract is entered
into.
