Option to award one supplier to perform all services offered within the scope of the Framework Agreement.

This option is available for reactive and planned maintenance of building, electrical, mechanical and painting and decorating.
• COMPETITIVE PRICING
Capped pricing during the framework period to support budgeting and calculation of benefits realised by participating authorities. Mini-competition may be undertaken to meet the bespoke requirement of each customer.
• SUPPLIER MIX
The agreement contains large national providers, but also a healthy number of regional SMEs to be more reactive to local needs.
• FLEXIBLE CONTRACT TERMS
