Parties to the framework agreement
In the contract notice eSPap identifies that all mandatory entities (State Direct Administration
Services and Public Institutes) and voluntary entities (Local Authorities (Municipalities), Local
Authorities’ Owned Companies, Regional Authorities and State Owned Companies) are party to
the framework agreement.
Mandatory entities: + 1800 entities
Voluntary entities: around 500
.....framework agreements can only be used
between the contracting authorities and the economic operators originally party to the
framework agreement. When a framework agreement is to be used by several contracting authorities, therefore, these contracting
authorities must be identified explicitly in the contract notice, either by naming them directly in the notice itself or through reference to
other documents (e.g. the specifications or a list available from one of the contracting authorities [ ], etc.).

With a single economic operator - Framework agreements not used by eSPap
Where a framework agreement is concluded with a single economic operator, contracts based on that agreement
shall be awarded within the limits of the terms laid down in the framework agreement. For the award of those contracts,
contracting authorities may consult the operator party to the framework agreement in writing, requesting it to support its
tender as necessary.
With several economic operators
Contracts based on framework agreements concluded with several economic operators may be awarded either:
a) by application of the terms laid down in the framework agreement without reopening competition, or
b) where not all the terms are laid down in the framework agreement, when the parties are again in competition on the basis
of the same and, if necessary, more precisely formulated terms, and, where appropriate, other terms referred to in the
specifications of the framework agreement, in accordance with the following procedure:
(a) for every contract to be awarded, contracting authorities shall consult in writing the economic operators capable of
performing the
contract;
......
(d) contracting authorities shall award each contract to the tenderer who has submitted the best tender on the basis of
the award criteria set out in the specifications of the framework agreement.

Centralised Purchasing System
Dividing contracts/Subcontracting
Through the Portuguese e-procurement solution, SMEs
are able to better access public markets, either isolated
or in association, in order to improve scale.
In designing the tenders, several measures were taken
according to the principles of the European SBA, like
creation of lots, regionally and by size, adaptation of
requisites to the economic dimension of the markets,
multi-access criteria or allowing subcontracting.
Currently SMES account for 70% of the System’s 250
suppliers.

Identifying needs and aggregation methodologies
Aggregation:
a) Internal
b) External, UMC, CPB or third party
To aggregate it is necessary to:
Understand available goods and services in the Catalogue
Define rules: duration of contract, timeline, formularies,
documentation, etc

Identifying needs and aggregation methodologies
Best practices
• Do not include all goods and services – rationalise
» Advantages:
• Order management
• Stock management
• Invoice management
• Assess and plan needs (at least one year ahead, but it is
possible to adapt to each category and/or FA)
• Define clearly the rules, but be flexible if necessary

Centralised Purchasing System
Financing structure
Operations are funded by charging fees on suppliers that are part of
the framework agreements. No fees are charged on public buyers.
There are only fixed rates in each framework agreement that are
charged to suppliers based on their invoicing amount to public entities
under the framework (purchases). Rate range: from to 0.5% up to 3%.
The usage of the e-procurement tools is free of charge:





Electricity: 0.5%
Software, Vehicle Insurance and Mobile communications: 3%
Vehicles: 2%
Fuel: 1 cent per litre
All other framework agreements: 1%
Framework fees are calculated to support the setting up and managing
costs, but also operating costs. The fees take in consideration the
relevance of each category of goods and services, in terms of market
size, margins and relevance. In the last two year they covered 100% of
operations.

IT Framework | FA upgrade
Product upgrade during FA length (usually 2 years)
Can occur:
• By eSPap initiative or
• By contractors request (typically due to a product discontinuation)
However, the new proposals must:
• Maintain or decrease price offer
• Maintain brand/maker
• Maintain or improve technical specifications

IT Framework | Main issues
Main issues and difficulties
• Diversity of public administration key needs
• Solved by constitution of lots with several package solutions which fit in the majority of requests
(laptop, desktop, netbook, rack server, blade server, standard, high performance,...)
• Market diversity and modularity
• Solved by division on lots by product category attached with various possible combinations of
peripherals, accessories and additional options for upgrade to ensure and optimize their adaptability
• FA Product upgrade/update
• Solved by availability of update procedure during FA length
• Performance assurance
• Solved due the use of a settled requirement benchmark rating (Sysmark 2007: scenario office
productivity/ Mobilemark 2007: performance qualification / Mobilemark 2007: battery life/ SPEC
CPU 2006 – CINT 2006 Baseline)
• Due to legal risk, eSPap did not request or refer any model /brand of processor (or other with
similar performance). Instead we defined a level according to an official and accepted
benchmark (Bapco and SPEC)
