Restricted
IV.1.2)Limitations on the number of operators who will be invited to tender or to participate
Envisaged number of operators: 5
Objective criteria for choosing the limited number of candidates: The purpose of this pre-qualification stage is to provide the Contracting Authority with sufficient information to allow Economic Operators to be selected for the tender stage for the contract. Economic Operators shortlisted from the pre-qualification process will be invited to participate in a competitive tender process for the contract. It is anticipated that the 5 Economic Operators that satisfy the completeness and compliance checks, the criteria for the rejection of economic operators, the information as to the economic and financial standing and who achieve the highest scores in the technical or professional ability evaluation process will be short-listed and invited to submit tenders for the contract. Where there is a tie for 5th place, then all economic operators in 5th place will be invited to tender. For the purpose of this exercise a tie for 5th place will have deemed to occur where 2 or more economic operators have been awarded identical scores. Economic Operators tender in the knowledge that the contract may not be tendered at the target dates set down in the procurement timetable. This is because the contract may be unavoidably delayed or alternatively cancelled. In the event that procurement is unavoidably delayed, but not cancelled, the PQQ's will be assessed at the time of receipt and applicants notified of the outcome. The maximum period that the short-list will be maintained is 12 months from the PQQ submission date. When the procurement process is recommenced, then the Contracting Authority may seek confirmation that the short-listed economic operators still meet the required minimum standards for the competition.
