Multi Supplier Framework for the Supply and Delivery of Leisurewear to MTU

Munster Technological University is seeking tenders from competent providers for the Supply and Delivery of Leisurewear to MTU Cork Campus and MTU Kerry Campus’s. MTU wishes to create a multi supplier framework for this tender. MTU Cork and Kerry have long traditions in sport with over 50 Sports Clubs across both MTU Cork Campus and MTU Kerry Campus. The leisurewear requirements consist of sport leisurewear for the different MTU clubs and leisurewear that can be purchased by different departments. Suitable suppliers will not only need to reliably supply large quantities of leisurewear to Departments in both MTU Cork and Kerry Campuses but also smaller quantities of Leisurewear to individual clubs and departments. All gear must be Machine Washable and Tumble Dried. MTU are seeking to put in place a framework of minimum of (1) and a maximum (6) suppliers for this competition . Contracts will be awarded on the basis of either direct drawdown and mini-competition. This will be determined by the value of each order required. Direct Drawdown: Where the value of the order will be less than €500 (ex Vat), the supplier will be chosen from the framework panel based on its ability to fulfil the requirement based on all applicable factors at the time of the requirement. This may include, but not be limited to, proximity from delivery location, availability of required product(s), speed of delivery and price.  Quotes to confirm the price will be required before confirming any order.   Mini-Competition: Where the value of the order will be €500 or more (ex Vat), MTU will run a mini competition among all the panel members. Panel members will be invited to submit a mini-tender. Please note that at the sole discretion of MTU, the threshold figure of €500 (ex Vat) mentioned above may be adjusted up or down should this be considered necessary during the duration of this contract. A mini competition will be run between all suppliers for each MTU service requirement. Mini competitions will be run by the relevant department(s) subject to their specific requirements As multiple departments will be placing orders there will be a need for the winning company/ies to set up one MTU account where multiple departments can order under.
