Under the terms of this contract the successful supplier(s) will be required to deliver Community Benefits in support of the authority’s economic and social objectives. Accordingly, contract performance conditions may relate in particular to social and environmental considerations. The Community Benefits included in this contract are:

This means, as part of their tender response, Tenderers are asked to set out how they will deliver ‘community benefits’ through the contract by completing the ‘Menu of Options’ which will form their Community Benefits Plan, attached as Appendix 2.

Tai Tarian will be adopting the “core approach” as part of this procurement process. This means the Community Benefits Plan will be evaluated and scored as part of the tender process.

The buyer considers that this contract is suitable for consortia bidding.
