Overview

This Procurement was conducted in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023, using the Open Framework Procedure. The Framework period will be for eight (8) years.

It is intended for the contract to commence 1 September 2025. Open Frameworks are "reopened" (i.e. one Framework in the scheme expires as the next one commenced) periodically throughout the term to allow new suppliers to tender for a place on the Framework. The Open Framework will re-open intermittently, during which periods new providers will be able to gain entry onto the Framework Agreement.
