Call-off methods

1. Direct selection (Rotation and Client Selected)

A framework contractor is directly selected using either the Rotation or Client Selected process from the respective lot of the framework without competition. Rotation allows selection of the next contractor on the list based upon qualitative criteria. The Client Selected process allows selection of a contractor based on the provision of a report that satisfies the requirements of the framework and a Clients internal governance. A tender price is then developed with the single framework contractor and any subsequent call-off contract is awarded.

2. Price/quality mini competition (two stage)

All framework contractors in a lot submit proposals that are assessed against the stage 1 scoring criteria to select a single winning proposal. A tender is subsequently developed with the selected framework contractor and any subsequent call-off contract is awarded. Note that the framework has been set up to permit variance in the balance of price/quality assessments, which can range between 20/80 and 80/20.

3. Price/quality mini competition (single stage)

All framework contractors in a lot submit competitive quotations for the award of a call-off contract by means of a price and quality competition. Note that the framework has been set up to permit variance in the balance of price/quality assessments, which can range between 30/70 and 90/10.

4. Price-only mini competition (single stage)

All framework contractors in a lot submit competitive quotations for the award of a call-off contract by means of a price competition only.

Access fees

YORcivil Major Works 2 has one of the lowest framework charges in the industry.

Unlike other frameworks, this charge is capped for large projects, too. Fees are recovered directly from contractors for convenience.

As a not-for-profit public sector organisation, YORhub only aims to cover the cost of managing the framework and contribute towards the cost of procuring replacement frameworks.
