Description

ESPO and YPO are seeking to establish a framework agreement with a number of Service Providers for the provision of staff benefits. The framework will cover a range of benefits from a total managed service to individual schemes such as cycle to work, financial wellbeing, technology products, leisure & retail discounts, car leasing, childcare voucher and Reward & Recognition schemes: Lot 1 - Managed Service Lot 2 - Cycle to Work Lot 3 - Financial Wellbeing Support Lot 4 - Technology Products Lot 5 - Leisure and Retail Discount Lot 6 - Car Leasing Lot 7 - Childcare Vouchers Salary Sacrifice Lot 8 - Reward and Recognition The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period. Throughout the duration of the framework, ESPO shall monitor the Supplier's financial standing against the Suppliers initial financial positioning on the commencement date of the framework. If a Suppliers financial standing falls below the position recorded on the commencement date, ESPO will raise this with Suppliers and discuss the circumstances round this. MI (Management information) for the framework will be collected on a quarterly basis by the Contract Support Officer (CSO). The CSO will also maintain checks to ensure that any relevant insurances continued to be held. Social Value will be assessed and monitored by the framework manager. Suppliers will be expected to demonstrate social value initiatives throughout the lifetime of the framework. Additional information: As a Central Purchasing Body as defined in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Framework Agreement is open for use by Public Bodies (defined at https://www.espo.org/amfile/file/download/file/9608/) that also fall into one of the following classifications of user throughout all administrative regions of the UK: Local Authorities; Educational Establishments (including Academies); Central Government Departments and Agencies; Police, Fire & Rescue and Coastguard Emergency Services; NHS and HSC Bodies, including Ambulance Services; Registered Charities; Registered Social Landlords; The Corporate Office of the House of Lords, The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons; or any public body established by or under the Scotland Act 1998 or any Act of the Scottish Parliament. Details of the classification of end user establishments and geographical areas are available at: https://www.espo.org/legal. ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Limited, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector. The successful Supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement (the Second Framework) with ESPO Trading Limited on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself. Any Second Framework agreement will be a purely commercial agreement and will, for the avoidance of doubt, not be governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. ESPO Trading Limited may enter into the second framework agreement with the successful supplier and make it available to third sector clients who themselves are not required to follow the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. Accordingly, this is provided for bidders information only. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.
