Procurement team

Procuring your requirements through the YORconsult3 framework is straightforward, safe and sustainable.

That’s because it was set up by a team of procurement, project delivery and legal professionals from the two authorities that run and manage the framework.

This team has years of experience in establishing and managing public sector frameworks and partnering arrangements.

Procurement process

Lessons learned from previous frameworks helped inform YORconsult3. Its creation included:

  • Compliance with The Public Contracts Regulations 2015
  • Rigorous quality checking and due diligence
  • Consideration of case law relating to frameworks
  • The Tender opening was conducted electronically
  • Companies assessed first against minimum standards then on price (60%) and quality (40%)

Price assessment based on:

  • Percentage Fee Element (for building projects)

  • Refurbishment Uplift
  • Lead Designer Uplift
  • Principal Designer Uplift
  • Additions for Tender Document Preparation
