PQQ (Pre Qualification Questionnaire)
We use a website called Bravosolutions for our PQQ exercise for all EU tenders and for some tenders that fall below EU thresholds. The instructions for completion of the PQQ are submitted with the advert either through OJEU or Supply2.gov.uk.

Your pre-qualification questionnaire (PQQ) must be completed and submitted electronically by using the Bravosolutions local government etendering service by (date & time).
Firstly, register your company in the top left corner of the screen and you will be issued with a username and password. If you have registered and have forgotten your Username and Password, please click on the forgotten password link on the homepage.
Once you have obtained your log in details, please complete your PQQ in full. To do this, click on the 'view current opportunities & notices' link and select the opportunity you wish to complete. Then follow the instructions on the screen.
If you are experiencing problems or you require assistance in using the Bravosolutions e-tendering service please contact Bravosolutions free of charge on 0800 368 4850 or email help@bravosolution.co.uk.
The answers contained in your completed PQQ will be scored against a number of weighted criteria to determine your suitability to be included on this shortlist.
(X)% of the score will be attributed to quantitative questions and (X) % for the qualitative questions all of which can be found in the Technical envelope.
You should attempt to answer all parts of the PQQ to the best of your ability with concise, honest and factual responses. Even if you already provide similar services to Midland Heart you should answer all questions fully since failure to do so may affect your overall score.
ITT Stage
Successful suppliers at the PQQ stage will be invited to tender via the Bravosolutions e-tendering website and in writing. All tender documents required by the supplier will be uploaded onto the Bravosolutions website. When the tender opens the suppliers will have the opportunity to download the documents and complete the tender. The tenderbox will close at a specified time and by this time the supplier will have been required to upload their responses. Should a supplier miss this deadline the tenderbox may close and the supplier may be unable to participate in the tender exercise. Only under extreme circumstances will the date be extended. Hard copies are not normally required nor will be accepted unless previously agreed with the Category Manager.
