How to apply

How we award contracts

Our documentation will make clear how tenders will be evaluated. We usually look at price and quality, as well as other factors. The contract will be awarded to the supplier who scores highest in the tendering process. They will be asked to sign a written contract with NCHA. Unsuccessful candidates will be notified, and will have the opportunity to request feedback on their tender. 

Our formal tendering process ensures that contracts at NCHA are awarded fairly. The regulations NCHA is governed by require contracts to be awarded after a competitive and transparent process. This could involved a tendering exercise, or seeking quotations from prospective suppliers.
