All questions and responses regarding this PQQ and the procurement should be submitted via Loughborough University’s Delta electronic tendering system (Delta).

Contact regarding this procurement should solely be made through Delta.

Where requested, or if absolutely necessary, Applicants shall attach any supporting documents to this PQQ marking clearly on all such documents the name of their organisation and the number of the question in this application form to which the documents refer.

vii. Failure to provide a satisfactory response or no response at all to any of the questions may result in an Applicant being excluded from further consideration.

e. Verification of information provided

Some documentary evidence is required to be produced but not all questions require supporting documents up front at this stage. However, the Procurement Team may ask to see these documents at a later stage, so it is advisable that Applicants ensure they can be made available upon request.

Consortia arrangements

Where the Applicant is a consortium, it is recognised that arrangements in relation to consortia may (within limits) be subject to future change. You should therefore respond in the light of the arrangements as currently envisaged. Applicants are reminded that any future proposed change in relation to consortia must be notified to the Procurement Team so that it can make a further assessment by applying the selection criteria to the new information provided.

h. Queries about the procurement exercise

Any questions about the procurement exercise should be submitted via Delta.

Applicants are free to ask questions and clarifications at any stage of the PQQ process up to [date and time].

Appendix B

NOTES

Health & Safety

(i) Organizations with fewer than five employees are not legally required to have a documented policy statement. If a supplier is in this category it does not have to write down its policy, organisation or arrangements. However, it does need to be able to demonstrate that its policy and arrangements are adequate in relation to the type of activity likely to be undertaken and assessments of competence will be made easier if when procedures are clear and accessible.

(ii) RIDDOR: The Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013.

(iii) The terms ‘Designer’ and ‘Principal Designer’ relate to the professional function to be provided by the supplier, not to the type of organization. These questions align with the requirements for evidence in the Guidance for the CDM Regulations 2015. They cover the Stage 1 assessment of capability only (CDM 2015).

(iv) Chartered membership of a recognised construction-related institution.

Environment

EMAS: The European Eco-management and Audit Scheme, sponsored by the European Commission (see http://ec.europa.eu/environment/emas/index_EN.htm)

Building information modelling, policy and capability

Level 2 BIM describes a specific range of BIM capabilities (see PAS91:2013+A1:2017). These involve developing and sharing 3D construction project-related data, via an electronic ‘BIM environment’, with others involved in a project. This includes an as-built ‘Data Drop’ for use by the Client. The electronic BIM environment allows design models (digital objects and supporting information about these objects) to be shared. Each model requires platform software and a database of object information.
