The Framework Agreement will be for a period of up to 4 years, commencing 18.8.2017, allowing for the placing of orders (call-off contracts) as and when required, subject to available funding. The Framework will allow for a call-off contract for the maintenance of procured equipment for a period of up to 10 years from the commencement of the Framework. The values provided in this notice are estimated and based on participation and funding that is subject to change. This Framework has been procured by Hampshire County Council and all Services under the Framework will be called-off directly by Hampshire County Council or the named Contracting Authorities (or any successor Authorities following any Local Government devolution activity as published by individual Authorities). Authorities permitted to use this Framework are Hampshire County Council, Portsmouth City Council, Southampton City Council, Isle of Wight Council, Surrey County Council, Dorset County Council, Poole Borough Council, Bournemouth Borough Council and West Sussex County Council. As a Framework, there can be no guarantee on the volume and frequency of call-off orders made and there is no guarantee that any of the named Contracting Authorities will make any call-offs during the lifetime of the Framework. The value of the Framework is approximate only as it is based on, and dependent on the successful outcome of funding applications, that may be made for small scale deployments, or major transport schemes.
