Objectives of the tool

• To explain the benefits of joint procurement (i.e. combining the procurement actions of two or more public authorities)
• To outline two simple models for authorities to implement joint procurement with suitability depending on the scope of the action and relationship between the authorities

Benefits of joint procurement

In general:

• Financial – greater buying power through increased quantities demanded
• Administrative – More efficient than all authorities tendering separately
• Skills and expertise – Pooling the skills and expertise of all participants
• For authorities with no experience/interest in green public procurement, joint procurement actions can be a good entry point as there are clear financial benefits, and work is minimised <Greek version case study (38)> <English version case study (38)>

For encouraging the market for more environmentally sound products and services:

• Helping to launch environmentally innovative solutions
• Reducing the price of environmentally sound products and services 
• Introducing new products into national markets and therefore allowing authorities to have access to a wider market
• Standardising environmental demands
• Pooling environmental expertise
• Entry-door for introducing sustainable procurement

What does this tool do?

The tool presents the benefits of joint procurement, and provides examples of existing joint procurement activities in Europe. The tool then outlines two implementation models with public authorities can use for joint procurement. The tool also presents some advice on how to initiate a joint procurement action within your administration, encouraging other authorities to join a consortium, different contractual arrangements and how to take advantage of international co-operation in setting up activities. Much of this work has been based on a number of pilot joint procurement activities which have taken place with the LEAP project.

Quick actions

As this tool is designed for authorities, which do not currently have access to permanent joint procurement bodies or organisations, but want to take advantage of the benefits of JP, no quick actions can be proposed.

Each authority will have to read section 3 of this tool to identify which model of joint procurement is more appropriate according to their context. However, model B <section 3.3.>  is the easiest and quickest although the economical benefits are less clear. To know why, go to section 3.3. <section 3.3.>

“Joint procurement” (JP) means combining the procurement actions of two or more public authorities. The key defining characteristic is that there should be only one tender published on behalf of all participating authorities. Such JP activities are not new – in countries such as the UK and Sweden public authorities have been buying together for a number of years- though in other European countries, especially in the South, there is often very little or no experience in this area.

The LEAP project has successfully initiated pilot JP activities in Greece, Portugal and Spain, and in these (and other less experienced countries) there are huge potential gains to be tapped through JP.

There are several very clear benefits for public authorities carrying out JP:

• Financial – Combining purchasing activities obviously increases the quantities being purchased, and thus the buying power of the authorities involved. This will likely lead to more attractive offers from suppliers in response to tenders. For many small public authorities these advantages can be quite significant.
• Administrative costs – The total administrative work for the group of authorities involved in preparing and carrying out one rather than several tenders can be substantially reduced. How much it is reduced will depend on the type of JP arrangement used.
• Skills and expertise – Joining the procurement actions of several authorities also enables the pooling of different skills and expertise between the authorities. Procurement (and other) skills are scarce and not every public authority can develop high quality skills across the full range of local authority functions1 . Smaller authorities in particular can benefit from the capacities of staff in larger authorities. This is particularly useful when procuring innovative products and services. Investigating new products/services can be time-consuming. However, if skills from different authorities are combined, the workload can be shared.

These arguments, of course, apply to any form of public procurement not just green procurement. However, JP also represents a very effective way of encouraging the market for more environmentally sound products and services:

• Entry-door for introducing sustainable procurement – In authorities where there is little knowledge of, or support for sustainable procurement, persuading other internal departments to participate in an environmentally focussed JP action on the basis of cost may be an effective approach for getting sustainable procurement more generally on the agenda.
• Launching customers for environmentally innovative solutions – Through bulk purchasing, local authorities can provide the necessary demand to launch new, more environmentally sound products and services on to the market.
• Reducing the price of environmentally sound products and services – the greater the demand for products and services, the more prices will come down. This is especially the case for those not yet well-established on the market.
• Introducing new products into national markets – Both the availability and price of environmentally sound products varies considerably in different European countries. Tendering for large quantities can encourage suppliers to introduce new brands available in other countries and alter pricing strategies. The use of environmental specifications which have been successfully applied in other countries is a very effective way of trying to develop the market for such products.
• Standardising environmental demands – The more standardised environmental demands are, the easier suppliers find it to respond. JP can help to promote greater standardisation.
• Pooling environmental expertise – As with procurement in general, environmental skills and knowledge vary considerably between public authorities. JP can help to pool this expertise.
• Encourage suppliers to develop new products or invest in new technologies, which are less environmentally harmful, stimulating the market. This is particularly the case when a large demand volume with a long-term contract is guaranteed, something that an individual authority is less likely to do.

This tool provides a description of different types of JP arrangements and procedures, offering some model solutions and providing examples of good practice from different countries. In particular, it is hoped that this will provide a sufficient starting point for authorities with little or no experience in JP to start reaping the potential rewards such approaches offer.

The definition of JP given in the introduction covers quite a wide range of different types of arrangement for joining activities, from the creation of separate organisations to implement actions, to loose agreements between authorities to join activities for a single tender. The procedures used also vary significantly, from one authority purchasing on behalf of several others, to all authorities signing separate contracts with winning suppliers.

2.1. Types of JP organisation

In simple terms there are two different types of organisational arrangements for JP:

• Permanent JP organisations – In some European countries organisations have been established to provide a centralised procurement function on behalf of a number of different public authorities.
• Examples of this include regional purchasing organisations in the UK such as ESPO (Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation2)<case study ESPO (39)>, owned by the member local authorities, which has a combined annual turnover of nearly €600 million.
  Another excellent example is the Eco-Procurement Service of Vorarlberg <case study Vorarlberg (41)>in Austria (Ökobeschaffungs-service - ÖBS3). The ÖBS was set up in 2001 to provide a centralised procurement service for 80 local authorities in the Region of Vorarlberg, focusing in the organising of JP activities for environmentally sound products involving these authorities. Results have shown that financial savings of up to 30% have been achieved, and administrative workload reduced by up to 60%. The Service is financed through a small commission charged on all procurement actions.

• Collaborative agreements between public authorities – JP does not require the setting up of permanent organisations, however. Another approach is for participating public authorities to directly collaborate in procurement actions, through their existing purchasing departments. Such arrangements may be permanent in nature such as the London Contracts and Supplies Group (LCSG)4 . Such groups, without legal status or common assets tend to work according to agreed protocols with a different local authority taking lead responsibility for sourcing markets, tendering and arranging contractual documentation for specific procurements all in consultation with other members of the group5 . The LCSG realises savings of €3.3 million annually for its members through collective purchasing.
  At the simplest level public authorities can choose to combine their activities for (initially at least) a single procurement action. Depending on the type of procurement procedure selected and national regulations, this may require the signing of an authorisation or collaboration agreement by the participating authorities. This was the main approach tested within the LEAP project.

In the long term, it may be advantageous for public authorities to examine the possibilities of setting up permanent collaboration agreements or even permanent JP organisations. This tool is designed, however for authorities which do not currently have access to such permanent arrangements but are interested in taking advantage of the benefits of JP. As such, the final, loosest arrangement is the focus for the tool.

2.2. Initiating a JP activity within your organisation

In order to introduce a new procurement procedure in a public authority the first step is to try to achieve high-level commitment to overcome potential barriers. Tool C presents some useful advice on identifying and overcoming barriers to GPP in general which will likely be applicable here.

 

2.2.1  Where to start?

Leading a green joint procurement activity requires the probable participation of different departments within an organisation: the environment department for the definition of environmental technical specifications, the procurement department to carry out the activity and the legal department to ensure that the process complies with the procurement laws.
As the joint activity is new, there may well be many legal questions to be faced. Therefore in order to be successful all stakeholders need to be involved.

 

2.2.2 How to convince others in your authority?

Different arguments will be needed to convince different people depending on their roles and personal attitude, however the following aspects are the most important topics that need to be covered:

• Short outline of benefits
  Nobody in an organisation will participate in a new activity unless they can obtain a reward for their effort - a benefit from it. In order to find arguments for the promotion of a JP activity in your organisation read the benefits of JP actions outlined in section 1 and select those most attractive for your target audience.
• Selection of a product
  For authorities not or little experienced in JP, the products selected should be relatively straightforward and “riskfree”, as the object will essentially be to demonstrate that JP can work effectively and create the structure and procedure to repeat the process in a more regular basis. Tool E offers some simple advice for 7 high priority product groups which may be useful.
• Description of the process
  New procedures and activities are normally not welcomed in public authorities; therefore the path must be flattened in order to minimise resistance. Providing a description of the steps to follow and templates of the documents to be developed is essential.

2.3. Building a consortium

In order to set up a JP activity at least 2 public authorities are needed.

 

2.3.1 How to find participants?

Finding authorities interested in participating in a green JP action can be complicated if there is little or no experience in JP activities. Possible communication channels include: existing public authorities networks, existing public authorities associations, dissemination through national/regional media channels or directly contacting large number of authorities via email (following up by phone in some cases).

 

2.3.2 How to convince other authorities to join?

Once some other authorities have express their interest in participating, a first meeting should be organised to explain in more detail the objectives of the activity and the steps to be followed.
When approaching those authorities the main issues to be raised and presented are:

• Short outline of the benefits of JP. To know more go to section 1.
• Description of the process. There is where most of the questions will be raised and the leading authority has to be ready to present and explain the procedure to the other authorities. If necessary a representative from the legal department should attend the first meeting to answer to questions.
• Existing successes elsewhere in the country or internationally. They should focus on the benefits obtained. Some case studies can be found here <section 8 – Case Studies>
• Results of a market survey. In order to guarantee that there are suppliers in your country that can meet the criteria developed, a basic market research could be carried out. The first stage could be to ask your current supplier and the suppliers of the other interested authorities if they would meet your criteria and at what price (according to purchasing intervals) they could be able to supply it. Once that has been carried out, potential local authorities can decide if they want to participate.

2.3.3 The Consortium Agreement

Sometimes, and especially if this is the first experience of JP, participating authorities need to formalise their participation through a Consortium Agreement. In certain cases it may be necessary for a participating authority to provide authorisation for the Lead Authority to act on their behalf in tendering.

- the reasons and objectives of the joint activity
- the name of the municipalities participating
- the product to be purchased (possibly including quantities)
- the procedure to be undertaken
- (depending on local regulations) authorisation for the Lead Authority
  to act on your behalf

In other cases (as in the Greek paper procurement example within LEAP <Greece JP paper case study (38)> it was enough to have signed official documentation that the person representing each authority was appointed to work on the authority’s behalf.

The Consortium Agreements used for the LEAP JP activities in Portugal and Spain can be found (in the Portuguese/Catalan) in Appendix C

One of the key aims of the LEAP project was to develop and test a series of models for JP in different European countries. As noted earlier, experience with JP differs hugely between countries. There are also differences in national procurement procedures and regulations. As such, different implementation models are appropriate in different contexts.

Eight pilot JP actions were carried out within the LEAP project – in the UK (three), Greece (three), Spain and Portugal. On the basis of these, two different models for JP implementation have been developed, varying according to the level of involvement of all participating authorities– with suitability depending on the scope of the action and relationship between the authorities;

• Model A - Full JP, with the close involvement of all participating authorities.
• Model B – “Piggy-backing” – where an authority carries out a procurement action individually but allows others the option of joining if it finds the winning offer attractive.

3.1. Which model to choose?

In general, Model B (Piggy-backing) is appropriate for any tendering action where you feel the contract may also be of interest to other authorities, and involves very little extra work on behalf of the tendering authority (essentially stating in the Contract Notice that other named public authorities may also wish to set up a contract with the winning supplier), and provides direct access to more environmentally sound products for less active authorities. However the benefits of buying in bulk are lost as there will be no guarantee that further authorities will join the contract. It may, however, be a useful starting point in building relations between participating authorities, which can then develop into closer co-operation with a full JP action.

Full JP actions enable the full benefits of JP to be realised, however will require additional work to set up – particularly the first activity.

3.2. Model A – Full joint procurement

For any Full JP action a “Lead Authority” should be designated, who will be responsible for co-ordinating the action. This is likely to be the instigator of the activity, or possibly the largest authority participating.

The exact roles of the Lead Authority and the other participating authorities may vary according to circumstance.

• Decentralised - If participating authorities are inexperienced with the concept of JP, or do not have a history of close co-operation with each other it will likely be more appropriate to take a more decentralised approach – with a focus on close collaboration between all participants at each tendering stage, and possibly sharing out individual tasks. This approach is also most appropriate if the product or service to procure is relatively complex and it is important to ensure the individual needs of all participants are met. In this case it is important to allow slightly more time than usual for tendering to allow the input of all partners.
• Centralised - If there is experience with JP or participating authorities do have a history of close co-operation (e.g. in regional networks) a more centralised approach may be better. In this case the Lead Authority takes on the majority of responsibilities during tendering, though allowing input from other participating authorities when drawing up tender documents. This will likely also be more appropriate where there are a large number of authorities participating and where the product or service is relatively standard, with few differences in the needs between authorities.

 

3.2.1 How does it work?

The following steps should be followed – differences between the centralised and decentralised approaches are presented where appropriate:

a) Disseminate a “Call for Interest” – Send a “Call for Interest” to as many potentially interested public authorities as possible6 . This Call should briefly describe the nature of the product/service to be procured, with general information on the desired environmental characteristics, together with details of timing, the procedure and contractual arrangements to be followed. Additional background information on the market status of environmental alternatives (rough price and life-cycle cost, availability) may also be useful to include if available. (also see section 2.3 on Building a Consortium )
Interested authorities should be asked to declare an interest in participation by a given date (not committing them to final participation), and to include any specific technical demands they have for the product to be procured and comments on the environmental demands if necessary.

Tip: This could be done through a questionnaire of needs where authorities can define: their current contract for a certain product or service (characteristics of the product or service, provider, cost, duration of the contract, etc.); and the demands for the JP action (the quantities they would like to buy, duration of the contract, etc).

_________________________________

6 For regional groups or those based on existing networks, this will likely be limited to these authorities

b) Prepare draft set of tender documents –A full set of draft tender documents including the technical and environmental specifications, evaluation criteria and model, model contract, and a pre-qualification questionnaire (if a restricted procedure is to be used) are prepared. (Examples of documents used in the LEAP JP activities can be found in Appendix A). A “Consortium Agreement” (see section 2.3.3, and examples in Portuguese and Catalan in Appendix C is also prepared. These drafts should be circulated to all authorities, which have declared an interest with a deadline for receiving feedback.
The appendices below present examples of Contract Notices, Calls and Invitations to Tender, environmental (and full specifications), standard contracts, and Consortium Agreements used in the LEAP JP activities, and can be used as a useful reference.
In a centralised approach these drafts would be produced by the Lead Authority alone.

In a more decentralised procedure the drafting of different documents may be given to different participating authorities, though ensuring an overview is kept by the Lead Authority. It may also be useful to hold a kick-off meeting to discuss, for example, the product/service needs of each authority, and responsibilities for drafting documents and evaluating offers

Tip: If there is concern about whether the market can meet the environmental demands the consortium would like to set, one participant may undertake some market research, starting perhaps with the existing suppliers of the participants.

 

c) Prepare final tender documents – Once feedback has been collected from interested authorities, the final documents are prepared by the Lead Authority (or perhaps shared between participants in a more decentralised approach) and again circulated. Interested authorities are asked to complete the Consortium Agreement by a given deadline if they wish to participate.

Tip: The Consortium Agreement does not need to commit the authority to either specify quantities to be purchased, or even to actually sign a contract with the winning supplier (though it can). This will depend on the type of contractual arrangement defined (see section 4 below ).

 

d) Publish call for tender – The Lead Authority will publish the call for tender. (Examples of Contract Notices used for the LEAP JP activities are included in Appendix A). A participating authority will also need to be designated to deal with questions from suppliers. In a centralised approach this will be the Lead Authority.

Tip: It is recommended that this also be published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), using the TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) web portal7 , to have access to as large a number of potential suppliers as possible.

 

e) Evaluate tender offers and select winning supplier – Following the deadline for receiving offers, the tenders will need to be evaluated, including receiving clarifications from suppliers.
In a centralised approach, the evaluation will be carried out by the Lead Authority on the basis of the evaluation scheme agreed upon earlier.
In a more decentralised approach it may be appropriate to set up an Evaluation Panel with representatives of each participating authority, who will then evaluate the tenders and decide on a winning bidder together.

Tip: It will save a considerable amount of time under the decentralised approach if an authority is given the task of carrying out a preliminary evaluation of the offers to provide a summarised report which the Evaluation Panel can then work with.

7 This is compulsory anyway, for all tenders above the thresholds set out in the new EU procurement Directives

3.2.2 The main benefits and weaknesses of Full joint procurement

The main benefits:

• Full JP allows the participating authorities to enjoy the benefits of buying in bulk (as long as contracts include a commitment to purchase)
• All participating authorities can ensure their specific needs are met by feeding into the development of the tendering documents

The main weaknesses:

• Compared to piggy-backing, more administrative work is required in co-ordinating the participating authorities especially when following the decentralised approach
  

3.3. Model B – “Piggy-backing” joint procurement

”Piggy-backing” is the simplest approach to JP, involving very little extra work, and little co-ordination with other potentially participating authorities.

 

3.3.1 How does it work?

When an authority publishes a tender (Contract Notice, see Appendix A) it is possible to include a statement that other named public authorities may also wish to make use of the resulting contract (this can be included in Section II.2.1 – “Total Quantity and Scope” - in the Standard OJEU Contract Notice Form.
For example in a recent tender from the London Borough of Lewisham for biofuels the following text was used:

Lewisham ‘piggy-backing’ tender for TFT monitors <Lewisham monitors case study (40)>

 

“Lewisham is acting as a lead authority for a number of UK local authorities and their associated purchasing organisations participating in the LEAP project. These are currently Lewisham, Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and ESPO (Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation) the Contract may also be used by other London Boroughs and similar organisations who are members of the LCSG (London Contract and Supplies Group). The volumes identified below are those for the London Borough of Lewisham who will make use of the contract for its supply arrangements. The other Authorities and Organisations identified may elect to make use of the resulting contract at some future date.”

 

Under this wording the other authorities named can set up a contract with the winning supplier at a later date (during the timeframe of the original contract) if they consider the conditions favourable. This is called “piggy-backing”.

 

3.3.2 The main benefits and weaknesses of piggy-backing

The main benefits:

• the piggy backing authorities do not have to carry out their own tender (and thus have substantially reduced costs), without the Lead authority having any additional costs to pay
• to encourage authorities less experienced with sustainable procurement who may not be willing to go through the whole procedure and risk of tendering for environmentally sound products. They can simply be presented with the final offer, and decide whether it is favourable or not, and thus gives them a risk-free potential entry into the market for environmentally sound products

The main weaknesses:

• The advantages of bulk buying that Full JP offers are lost, as there is no guarantee for the supplier that any other authorities will take up the offer
• The tender will be based solely on the needs of the tendering authority. If other authorities have special requirements these will not have been included in the tendering

3.4. Development of environmental criteria

A key challenge for less experienced administrations is knowing which environmental demands to set, and how to formulate these in tendering documents. Tool F gives some general advice on this topic, and Tool E provides more detail for seven high priority product groups. In Appendix B you can also find the environmental specifications used in LEAP JP activities for cleaning products, TFT monitors and recycled paper.
In carrying out the LEAP pilot joint procurement activities, one of the clear benefits was how using environmental criteria applied successfully in countries with more developed markets for greener products (in this case cleaning products in Sweden), can assist the introduction of such products to new markets (in this case the UK). In setting up a JP activity it is worth exploring the markets for environmentally sound products in other countries, and seeing whether more advanced public purchasing criteria are available.

The most appropriate approach to contractual arrangements will depend on a number of considerations, and will need to be developed by your authority’s procurement department.
For the pilot activities carried out in LEAP two different types of arrangement were used:

 

4.4.1 Framework agreement

In the JP activities carried out within LEAP led by Lewisham and Amaroussion <case studies (<LINK 3486>38 and 40)>, a basic framework agreement approach was used. This arrangement essentially allows all participating authorities to establish contracts with the supplier(s) on the basis of the conditions in the framework agreement.

Framework agreements

 

A ‘framework agreement’ is an agreement between one or more contracting authorities and one or more economic operators, the purpose of which is to establish the terms governing contracts to be awarded during a given period, in particular with regard to price and, where appropriate, the quantity envisaged. Definitions and General Principles in DIRECTIVE 2004/18/EC

 

For the Lewisham and Amaroussion led tenders each participating authority signed individual contracts with the winning supplier on the basis of the framework conditions set out in the tendering documents. In certain cases it may be possible for several authorities to actually sign a contract jointly, but this would need to be determined by your procurement department.

When using this approach it is not necessary to state that each participating authority (with the exception of the Lead Authority) WILL sign a contract with the winning supplier, only that they MIGHT. It is also not necessary for the participating authority to commit to purchasing a certain quantity of products through any contract. However, the firmer the commitment both to sign a contract and to specify exact quantities the better, as suppliers will likely provide better offers if they can base their decision on such certainty.

 

4.4.2 Central Purchasing Body

The new EC Procurement Directives allow member states to designate “Central Purchasing Bodies” (CPDs) which are entitled to purchase supplies and set up contracts for use by any other public authority. However, it is not obligatory for the Member State to allow CPDs, and so your national procurement regulations will need to be checked.

The Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation (ESPO) in the UK, which led another LEAP pilot activity <case study (39)>, is a designated CPD. As such the contract which ESPO signed directly with the three winning suppliers can be used by any further public authority – there is no need for a new contract to be established, because they are a CPD.

In many cases quantities to be purchased, even if buying together with other authorities, may fall below thresholds for requiring the publishing of tenders.

Across the EU it is only compulsory to publish a tender in the OJEU above the following thresholds (with some exceptions):

 

€137,000 or €211,000 for Supplies and Services (depending on the type of organisation you are)8 €5,278,000 for Works

 

Below this amount national regulations apply. If the quantity to be purchased is relatively low in financial terms this often allows a greater degree of flexibility for those wishing to purchase. It may be that a small group of pre-selected companies can be approached to give offers without going through a formal tendering procedure.

In these cases the models proposed above still apply however the collecting of bids, and the evaluation of offers will take considerably less time and be more straightforward.

___________________________

8 €137,000 applies to all organisations covered in Annex IV of the new Procurement Directives. €211,000 applies to all other organisations

When there is no obligation to buy through the contract or no obligation to even sign a contract, it's important to promote and inform about the contract internally once it has been signed.

This is especially relevant in Model B (Piggy-backing), as interested authorities can have almost no role in the whole process but might be interested in the final conditions of the contract, as they could join it afterwards. Therefore the contracting authority should keep members informed of the progress of the tender.
 

7.5. International joint procurement

One of the original aims of the LEAP project was to explore the possibilities for public authorities in different EU countries to carry out JP together. This approach offers a greater potential for authorities in one country to take advantage of perhaps greater availability and/or lower prices for environmentally sound goods in other countries, and in this way assist in introducing new products onto their own market and/or lowering prices.

A number of hurdles were encountered in attempting to organise such activities:

 

7.5.1 Legal issues

A number of potential legal problems in carrying out international joint procurement were identified. A particular concern was achieving compliance with both mandatory EC regulations and the national/local laws of all the countries involved. Though solutions are achievable, this requires a good deal of legal analysis. A further problem relates to the law governing the performance of the final contract(s) signed. Whilst not necessarily insurmountable, no solution to these problems has currently been identified.

 

7.5.2 Practical hurdles

• It may be difficult to find companies able to supply products to all participating countries (especially at the same price).
• The product/service requirements of the participating authorities will likely be more similar if they all come from the same country.
• Unless all participating authorities are able to speak a common language, the potential costs in both time and money of translating tender documents, discussing details between authorities and maintaining contracts are likely to be a major barrier.

Again, none of these problems are insurmountable, but would suggest that such an approach can only be taken in very specific cases, where participating authorities are committed to the environmental aims behind the approach. In regions where language and market conditions are not greatly different (e.g. Germany/Austria, Scandinavia) these hurdles will likely not be so great.

7.6. International co-operation on joint procurement

Even though there are substantial hurdles to be overcome in setting up international joint procurement, experiences during the LEAP project have made clear the benefits of co-operating with international partners in setting up national JP actions (or any green procurement activity for that matter):

There are two principle advantages which such international co-operation can bring:

• The transfer of best practice procurement criteria – where an authority is interested in purchasing more environmentally sound products which are not commonly purchased in that country, the use of best practice criteria from a country with a more developed market for such products can help to assist their introduction to your own market.
  Within the LEAP project the criteria for cleaning products used in a UK JP activity – Appendix B – 10.2, were based on Swedish criteria, and the activity helped to expand the usage of high-quality cleaning products meeting these criteria in the UK.
  For the JP activities on procuring recycled paper in Greece, Spain and Portugal – Appendix B ,used best practice criteria from Sweden and the UK, which were of a stricter and better-defined standard that those regularly used in these countries, with the outcome of ensuring a very high quality product was purchased

• Transfer of best practice in procedural and contractual arrangements – Through working with partners from countries more experienced with JP, useful advice can be gathered on the type of procurement procedure and contractual arrangements to be made, including possibly the use of actual tender documentation. Even co-operation between authorities in different countries, none of which are experienced in JP can be beneficial in exploring ways to overcome local barriers and sharing advice.

INVITATION TO TENDER AND INSTRUCTIONS TO TENDERERS

JOINT CONTRACT FOR THE SUPPLY OF ENERGY EFFICIENT TFT COMPUTER MONITORS

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 The LEAP Partners (called the “Participating Authorities”), are seeking tenders jointly as national Groups to provide for this Supply.  The London Borough of Lewisham (called “the Lead Authority”) will be acting on behalf of the Participating Authorities in the UK and invites you to put in a bid (called a “tender”) to provide this supply.

1.2 This document tells you what you must do if your tender is to be considered.  If you do not do what this document requires, your tender will not be considered.

1.3 You can find a complete list of the documents sent with this tender pack at the back of this document.  You should make sure that these are read and understood.

1.4 There are three sections to these instructions:

• Background information.
  This is only background; most of the detail about what it is that the Participating Authorities want done is in the Specification and any accompanying items.  You will find information about the basis on which you would have to provide the service in the Contract and accompanying items (if your tender is successful).
• Selection criteria
  This explains what the Participating Authorities will take into account when choosing the successful tenderer.
• Essential information for tenderers.
  This tells you what to do next.

1.5 It is expected that the successful tenderer will begin provision of the service in autumn of 2005.  The Agreement is for a period of 36 months, with the possibility of an extension for a further 12 months.

2. BACKGROUND INFORMATION

2.1 In this section, we set out background information about this contract.  Full details are contained in the enclosed documents.  Please note that these set out the Participating Authorities minimum requirements.  You should make sure that you set out the ways (if any) in which you would exceed these minimum standards in the information you send to us. 

2.2 The contract will be a multi-supplier framework agreement, and not all Participating Authorities will join the contract from the commencement date or possibly throughout the duration of the contract.  The successful tenderer(s) will be required to enter into a contract for the supply and delivery of Energy Efficient TFT Computer Monitors to the Participating Authorities.  It will be at the discretion of each of the Participating Authorities as to whether or not they participate in the contract.

2.3 Participating Authorities that have existing contracts for the above supply may not require a bulk supply/provision of the required supply/service.  However, they may periodically require smaller quantities of these products during the term of the contract.  Participating Authorities will either request delivery to site and/or bulk delivery.

2.4 In its role as lead authority, The London Borough of Lewisham Council will act as a facilitator only in respect of the Participating UK Authorities, and will not be held liable in any respect for their acts or neglects.  Participating UK Authorities will contract directly with the supplier, and the London Borough of Lewisham Council will not be liable for the costs of any goods and /or services ordered by any of the other Participating Authorities from the supplier.

3. SELECTION CRITERIA

3.1 The Participating Authorities will evaluate tenders against the following criteria, which are  placed in order of importance, in order to select the most economically advantageous tender:

The Contract will be awarded on the basis of the most economically advantageous tender assessed on the following criteria, together with the technical detail identified in the specification.
 
(i) Financial detail
(ii) Quality and Operational Competence
(iii) Customer Care/Service Provision
(iv) Environmental and Sustainability Issues (including Equal Opportunities)
(vi) Health and Safety

3.2 The next section (Essential Information for Tenderers) explains what information the participating boroughs want you to submit.  This will be used to assess and compare your tender with other tenderers in the above areas, using the following sub criteria:

a) Financial Detail: which will include value-for-money and whole life costing issues:

b) Quality and other non-financial factors: in particular, the ability of the Tenderer to perform and provide the specified items in accordance with the Tender Documents and to the required standards with particular reference to:

(i) the supplier’s response and delivery timescales;.

(ii) the supplier’s overall organisation and management structure being adequate to meet the requirements of the Specification and providing the Service for the period of the Agreement;

(iii) the perceived quality of the supplier’s support, both during and after commencement of the contract;

(iv) the quality of the supply and service being provided by the supplier;

(v) the quality of the product or products being provided by the supplier (you will later be requested to provide samples for evaluation, at no cost to the participating boroughs);

(vi) the suppliers’ ability to trade electronically;

(vii) the supplier’s financial stability and capacity;

(viii) the supplier’s technical capacity to provide the type of service required, delivery to site and/or bulk delivery);

(ix) the supplier’s ability to offer standard or recycled products that are produced with the minimum environmentally damaging effects and within the operation of related environmental quality systems;

(x) the supplier’s demonstration of the application of safety principles;

(xi) the supplier’s demonstration of the application of equal opportunities principles;

(xii) any other matters that the participating authorities may lawfully consider and which, in the opinion of the participating authorities, may affect the Tenderer’s ability to provide the specified items to the required standards.
 

4. ESSENTIAL INFORMATION FOR TENDERERS

4.1 The Proposal

You must also send back a proposal that sets out how you would go about delivering the full service (see section 3.2), together with the requested Method Statements which show the details of what you would do.  These documents are your opportunity to convince us that you should get this contract.  Make sure you tell us everything relevant. Once the participating boroughs are satisfied with these documents, they will be incorporated into and form part of the contract.  This is what your Proposal should contain:

1) Specification - Your proposal to meet the Supply Specification and associated matters.  Summarise what and how activities would be carried out.
 
2) Performance evidence - Provide evidence from past and current performance that demonstrates your organisation’s ability to supply the specified items to the standard required.
 
3) Budgets - Complete Pricing Schedule attached.
 
4) Quality - Detail what quality standards will be used in the delivery of the specified items. Propose outcome measures for the Supply and methods of monitoring.  What, how and when would data be collected.  Describe what use would be made of information gained from monitoring.

5) “Green Policy” – A copy of your organisations statement of environmental objectives, “green “ policy, or similar documents indicating any progress made towards an environmental audit of the company’s existing operation, including details of the method statement the tenderers will use to ensure that the provision of the specified supply is completed in line with these stated objectives;
 
6) Other - Such other matters as are required to be provided by the Contract Documents (such as insurance information) or any additional information that the Tenderer feels may support their Tender. 

4.3 How and When You Must Get the Information To Us

4.3.1 The closing date for receipt of your tender proposal is noon on 25.08.2005.

4.3.2 Your tender must remain valid and open for acceptance by the Council for six months after the date you sent it to us, or longer if that is agreed between you and the Council.

4.4 Rejection of Tenders

Your tender may be rejected if:

• you do not tender for the everything asked for; or
• you do not send back the Form of Tender and accompanying documents in accordance with this document or if you miss anything out; or
• you make any changes (see below)
• you act in any way improperly – see further explanation at the end of this Invitation

4.5 How The Participating Authorities Decide

• When?   We hope to make a decision on who gets the contract(s) by the end of September 2005.  We will try to meet this date but do not promise to do so.  Decisions have to be ratified by the relevant committees of the Participating Authorities.
• What process?   The process may include evaluation of returned tenders, interviews with the organisation, staff, users, follow up of references from existing contracts, samples.
• What criteria?   The decision on who gets the contract(s) will be made in accordance with the criteria set out above which will be used to identify the most economically advantageous tender.  The participating authorities do not bind themselves to accept the lowest or any Tender submitted.  It is completely up to the participating boroughs’ discretion whether to accept or not to accept a Tender.

4.6 What the Participating Authorities Are Not Liable For

We are not liable for any expense you incur in preparing and submitting your Tender, or for any loss suffered should a Tender not be accepted.  You must obtain for yourself at your own expense all information necessary for the preparation of your Tender.  While we try to make all the information sent accurate, we do not accept any liability if it is not.

4.7 Particular Points To Bear In Mind

4.7.1 Make sure that you are fully familiar with the nature and extent of the obligations that you will take on if your Tender is accepted.  You will be required to adhere to all the documents sent with this Tender pack.

4.7.2 Your attention is particularly drawn to the need for you to have insurance cover for the Contract to meet the requirements set out in the Contract.

4.7.3 Make sure you are aware of local conditions, the resources you will have to provide to perform the Supply/Services and any other matter that may affect the performance of the Contract.

4.7.4 The Tender Documents are and remain the property of the lead authority, and must be returned upon demand.

4.7.5 The fact that you have been invited to tender does not necessarily mean that you have satisfied the participating boroughs about any matters considered as part of the evaluation process.

4.8 What To Do If You Have Any Questions

If you have any questions, contact the persons named below who will provide whatever clarification the lead authority thinks necessary.  The lead authority may circulate the enquiry and the answer to all other Tenderers.  The final date for making such requests is one week before the closing date set out in paragraph 3 above:

4.9 Confidentiality

4.9.1 All the information enclosed (and any other information you get later or have already got) is confidential.  However, if you need to give anyone information because you need to obtain sureties or quotations (such as for insurance) necessary for the preparation of the Tender, you can give out necessary information if you first obtain from the persons to whom the information is shown an undertaking to the Authorities to keep the information confidential.

4.9.2 You must treat the details of your tender and any subsequent Contract as private and confidential.

4.9.3 You must comply with the Data Protection requirements and EC Privacy Directives and the confidentiality requirements set out in the Specification and Contract.

4.10 Changes

4.10.1 Made by you: If you specify any alternative terms and conditions to those required by the Participating Authorities, these will be deemed to have been rejected unless expressly accepted in writing. No alterations, erasures, omissions or additions are to be made to the text of the Tender Documents unless allowed by the lead authority’s representative as identified as in 4.8.

4.10.2 Made by the Participating Authorities: It is extremely unlikely that the Participating Authorities would be prepared to change anything in these Tender documents.  Only the lead authority’s Executive Director of resources has the authority to make changes.

4.11 What If You Get A Contract?

4.11.1 Start Date   You would have to start work in October 2005, or whatever date is required by the Participating Authorities.

4.11.2 Terms   You would be required to execute a formal Contract in the form enclosed.  If for some reason this did not happen immediately, you would still be bound by a contract.  The terms of that contract would be those set out in this Invitation and Instructions and accompanying documents; your Form of Tender and documents sent in with it; and all other information give by you to the Council, together with the lead authority’s written acceptance.  Where there were any differences between what we sent or told you, and what you sent or told us, the lead authority’s version would prevail.

4.13.1 Any canvassing   Any tender submitted by a Tenderer who has directly or indirectly canvassed any member or official of any of the participating boroughs concerning the award of the Contract or who has directly or indirectly obtained or attempted to obtain information from any such member or official concerning any other Tenderer or Form of Tender submitted by any other Tenderer shall not be considered for acceptance.

II-CONSIDERANDOS:

Considerando que o sector público na União Europeia, onde se incluem as autoridades locais, despende anualmente cerca de 16% do seu PIB na aquisição de bens e serviços, o que representa um valor anual de cerca de 1500 biliões de Euros.

Considerando que, na Cimeira do Rio em 1992, os governos de 176 países apontaram “os padrões insustentáveis de produção e consumo, em particular em países industrializados, uma das causas de maior impacto na deterioração contínua do ambiente a nível mundial” e apelaram a “uma revisão das suas políticas em matéria de aquisição de bens e serviços para os seus departamentos”.

Considerando a estratégia local de desenvolvimento adoptada pelo Município de Almada para a 1ª década do milénio – a década do Desenvolvimento Sustentável, consubstanciada na dinamização da Agenda Local 21 de Almada - ALMADA 21.

Considerando que, nesse âmbito, a Câmara Municipal de Almada tem vindo a desenvolver inúmeros projectos que visam a melhoria do seu desempenho ambiental na realização das suas actividades, promovendo a poupança e a utilização eficiente de recursos.

Considerando que a Câmara Municipal de Almada está a desenvolver o projecto EMAS LAB cujo objectivo é a certificação do Município de Almada pelo EMAS (Sistema Comunitário de Ecogestão e Auditoria) e através do qual pretende criar e implementar práticas no desempenho das actividades do Município, que promovam a poupança de recursos e a eficiência.

Considerando que a Câmara Municipal de Almada pretende integrar na aquisição de bens e serviços critérios de eficiência energética e ambiental nas especificações dos serviços contratados ou de produtos adquiridos.

Considerando que este tipo de produtos não têm ainda uma procura muito alargada, o que os torna normalmente dispendiosos relativamente aos convencionais.

Considerando que a compra conjunta deste tipo de produtos, por parte de um número significativo de autoridades locais, poderá contribuir para o desenvolvimento do mercado a nível europeu de produtos ambientalmente mais sustentáveis e, desta forma, baixar os seus preços unitários.

Considerando que, nesta perspectiva, a Câmara Municipal de Almada se associou ao Projecto LEAP – Local Authority EMAS and Procurement (EMAS e Eco-compras para Autoridades Locais), projecto co-financiado pelo programa Life da Comissão Europeia que reúne 12 municípios do Reino Unido, Suécia, Grécia, Espanha e Portugal.

Considerando que este projecto pretende desenvolver ferramentas que permitam a uma autoridade local, de grande ou pequena dimensão, realizar de forma sistemática e eficiente eco-compras.

Considerando que este projecto visa também, ao longo dos seus três anos de duração, testar as ferramentas desenvolvidas, procurando envolver outras entidades públicas e autoridades locais nacionais a realizar eco-compras conjuntas e a avaliar os benefícios ambientais e financeiros destas acções.

Considerando que a 2ª Compra-Conjunta deste projecto será realizada simultaneamente em Portugal, Espanha e Grécia e que o produto é o papel reciclado.

Considerando que a definição das especificações técnicas do papel reciclado, contou com a participação de todos os parceiros Europeus envolvidos no projecto LEAP e serão idênticas nos 3 países participantes.

Considerando a experiência positiva de utilização de papel reciclado na Câmara Municipal de Almada e a sua boa aceitação por parte dos funcionários e compatibilidade com os equipamentos.

É constituído, nos termos previstos no artigo 26º do decreto-lei nº 197/99 de 8 de Junho, o presente Agrupamento, o qual se regerá pelas cláusulas seguintes:

La Il·lma. Sra. Núria Buenaventura Puig, en la seva doble qualitat de Presidenta delegada de l’Àrea de Medi Ambient de la Diputació de Barcelona, i Presidenta de la Xarxa de ciutats i pobles cap a la sostenibilitat, en representació d’ambdues entitats, assistida per la Secretària delegada, María José Palacio Buisán.

EXPOSEN

Que la Unió Europea ha fixat l’augment de la proporció de productes respectuosos amb el medi en la compra de les administracions públiques com a un objectiu prioritari per al vigent mandat estratègic.

Que aquesta decisió la comparteixen plenament les associacions voluntàries de municipis d’àmbit europeu, com és ICLEI, que vénen posant en marxa diverses iniciatives perquè els municipis associats contribueixin a la creació de mercats fluids per als productes respectuosos amb el medi. Exemples d’aquestes iniciatives són la creació de la xarxa BigNet o el programa Procura+.

Que diverses entitats locals europees, entre les quals hi figura la Diputació de Barcelona, a través de l’Àrea de Medi Ambient, han constituït un grup de treball per executar un projecte per generalitzar la compra verda de les administracions públiques locals, que compta amb el cofinançament del programa LIFE Medi Ambient de la Unió Europea, identificat per l’acrònim LEAP (Local Authority EMAS and Procurement).

Que el grup de Compra Verda i Consum Responsable de la Xarxa de Ciutats i Pobles cap a la Sostenibilitat considera oportú sumar-se a aquestes iniciatives amb l’objectiu d’incentivar entre les autoritats locals, la compra de productes respectuosos amb el medi ambient.

Que les parts han realitzat diverses sessions de treball i han valorat la conveniència de treballar conjuntament, considerant que aquesta col·laboració pot ser en molts aspectes valuosa i eficaç.

Que com a primera acció de compra concertada es considera oportú fer una prospecció en el mercat sobre les possibles empreses subministradores de paper reciclat i de paper blanc ecològic en les millors condicions de respecte al medi ambient, tant pel que fa a la seva producció com a la distribució i a les possibilitats de tractament dels residus.

Que aquesta és una primera acció coordinada amb l’objectiu d’ampliar en un futur el nombre de productes i de municipis per tal d’organitzar una Xarxa de compra conjunta.

Que, a l'hora de valorar les possibles fórmules que, a l'empara de la normativa legal vigent, permetin articular la col·laboració, i tenint en compte que les parts comparteixen la necessitat de tirar endavant propostes comuns, es considera que resta justificada la formalització d’un Protocol que estableixi el marc de la col·laboració i coordinació que permeti avançar cap a objectius comuns, evitant duplicitat d'actuacions i economitzant recursos.

Que en conseqüència, les parts acorden formalitzar el present Protocol que lliurement sotmeten als següents

11.3.1 P A C T E S
11.3.2 
Primer.- Objecte.-

És objecte del present Protocol fixar els aspectes de col·laboració entre les parts per tal d’incentivar i avançar en la compra de productes respectuosos amb el medi ambient en l’àmbit local, essent la primera acció conjunta la realització d’una prospecció en el mercat sobre les possibles empreses subministradores de paper reciclat i de paper blanc ecològic en les millors condicions de respecte al medi ambient, tant pel que fa a la seva producció com a la distribució i a les possibilitats de tractament dels residus, amb la finalitat d’aconseguir el millor subministrador possible.

 

Segon.- Encàrrec dels Ajuntaments i de la Xarxa de ciutats i pobles cap a la sostenibilitat a la Diputació de Barcelona.

Els Ajuntaments de Terrassa, Mollet del Vallès i Tiana i la Xarxa de ciutats i pobles cap a la sostenibilitat, interessats en l’adquisició del paper esmentat, encarreguen a la Diputació de Barcelona l’elaboració d’un document que reculli els requeriments tècnics per al subministrament de paper reciclat i de paper blanc ecològic.

El redactat final del document haurà de ser consensuat per les parts.

A la vista de les necessitats especificades per cada ens i que el pressupost total no supera el que la normativa legal aplicable en matèria de contractació identifica com a contracte menor de subministrament, no es considera adient la realització d’un concurs públic però si que cal garantir les millors condicions tècniques i econòmiques possibles. Amb aquesta finalitat la Diputació de Barcelona convidarà a diverses empreses subministradores per tal que aquestes presentin, si ho consideren oportú, una oferta ajustada als requeriments tècnics i econòmics acordats per les parts signants d’aquest Protocol.

 

Tercer.- Comissió d’Avaluació.

Les parts acorden constituir una Comissió amb l’objectiu d’avaluar les ofertes presentades i seleccionar l’empresa més adient.

La Comissió tindrà una composició paritària i les parts podran proposar la participació, amb veu però sense vot, d’experts tècnics que puguin fer aportacions en l’objecte d’aquesta selecció.

Si abans de la reunió de la Comissió altres ens locals s’adherissin a aquest Protocol, els seus representants podrien, també, formar part de la dita Comissió.

 

Quart.- Adquisició del paper per part dels signataris del Protocol.

Una vegada s’hagi seleccionat l’empresa subministradora, cadascuna de les entitats signants d’aquest Protocol formalitzarà amb aquella els subministraments que considerin adients, assumint en cada cas la gestió i els pagaments corresponents.

 

Cinquè. - Ampliació de la col·laboració.-

Les parts es comprometen a realitzar els seus millors esforços per tal d’ampliar en el futur la col·laboració que s’estableix mitjançant el present Protocol, celebrant en el seu dia els convenis que considerin pertinents per tal de contribuir a potenciar i difondre els seus objectius.

 

Sisè.-  Vigència del Protocol.

Aquest Protocol entrarà en vigor al dia següent de la seva signatura i estendrà la seva vigència fins a ……………………

El termini màxim esmentat es podà ampliar per mutu acord de les parts.

 

Setè.-  Modificació del Protocol.

Aquest Protocol  constitueix la manifestació expressa de la voluntat de les parts, en relació a la matèria aquí continguda, i recull l'esperit i els objectius de les converses i els acords orals i escrits que hagin pogut realitzar-se amb anterioritat a aquest conveni.

Qualsevol modificació d’aquest conveni haurà de constar per escrit i estar signada per les parts, estant aquestes degudament autoritzades per a fer-ho.

L’adhesió d’altres ens locals al Protocol no implicarà la seva modificació.

 

Vuitè.- Causes de resolució del Protocol.

El present Protocol podrà ser resolt de forma anticipada abans del termini de la seva vigència en els supòsits següents:

• Per mutu acord de les parts.
• Per incompliment de les obligacions establertes en aquest conveni per qualsevol de les parts.
• Per impossibilitat d'aconseguir l'objecte o la finalitat prevista en el conveni.
• Per qualsevol de les causes previstes en el marc normatiu vigent.

 

Novè.- Règim jurídic.

El present Protocol tindrà caràcter administratiu i obligarà a les entitats signatàries de conformitat amb les previsions acordades i, en allò no previst específicament, es regirà per les previsions sobre relacions interadministratives, per les normes comunes de la Llei 30/1992, de 26 de novembre, de règim jurídic de les administracions públiques i del procediment administratiu comú, i per la resta de la normativa que sigui materialment aplicable a l’objecte de l’acord.

 

Desè.- Jurisdicció

Les parts acorden sotmetre les eventuals divergències que poguessin plantejar-se en ordre a l’incompliment del present Protocol a la jurisdicció contencioso-administrativa.

I per deixar-ne constància, com a prova de conformitat, les parts signen aquest document, que s'estén per quintuplicat exemplar i a un sol efecte.
