Structure of Value Lot System (Lot A/ Lot B) Introduction To actively encourage SMEs to bid for a place on the Project & Programme Management and Commercial Services Framework, a Value Lot System was introduced comprising of Lot A and Lot B. The Value Lot System incorporated low qualification criteria for Suppliers who wished to bid for Lot A only. This allowed smaller organisations, with less personnel/turnover who otherwise would not have met the qualification criteria, to bid for a Framework place. How it works Suppliers listed under the relevant Framework sub-category should be invited to respond to mini-competitions on the following basis: Suppliers on both Lot A and B should be invited to bid for requirements/call-offs up to an estimated value of £300k. Suppliers on Lot B should be invited to bid for all requirements/call offs with no restriction on value (all requirements/call offs including those up to £300k estimated value and above £300k estimated value). Points to Note Both Lots have identical sub-categories and capability statements. Rate schedules apply to both Lots.
