The estimated values stated in II.1.5 and II.2.6 are for the whole Framework Term, inclusive of the approximate value for extension. The estimated value in II.2.6 under Lot 1 and Lot 2 is the combined value for both Lots and not the value for each Lot, as the Council is unable to estimate the split of this value across the two Lots. The Framework Term for this Framework Agreement is an initial period of four (4) years with the option to extend for a further period(s) of up to two (2) years. Therefore, the maximum duration of this Framework Agreement could be six (6) years. The Council is awarding the Framework Agreement for this period in order to ensure continuity for Service Users and an attractive procurement for the provider market.Please note that the contract requirements will be subject to available financial resources, supplier performance and flexibility to meet changing demands.Tenderers should be aware that due to the nature of the Services provided, any Framework Agreement formed as a result of this procurement process shall be executed as a deed. Tenderers should seek independent legal advice on the implications of this prior to submitting their Tender, where appropriate.
