Capita has successfully secured a place on the Government Procurement Service’s Software Application Solutions Framework and Local Government Software Applications Solutions Framework. When purchasing through these Frameworks, these are the key features of the process:
- Customers should determine which framework Lot best fits their requirement. Advice can be sought from both Government Procurement Service and suppliers - and all ‘capable suppliers’ on the Lot should be invited to put forward a proposal
- The list of 'capable suppliers' can be refined through an initial Capability Assessment process which can be conducted via the Government Procurement Service’s website
- If there is more than one 'capable supplier' then a Further Competition can be conducted to select the best value for money option
- Customers can communicate with suppliers directly, or via the ‘e-tender facility’, on the Government Procurement Service website.
