These further competitions will be lots 16 and 17 of the framework ITT.The lots for this phase of the ICT Framework Procurement are Strategic Partnering Services, Support Services, the AET Further Competition, and the TEFAT Further Competition.enFrame are focussed on ensuring that every procurement is driven by Social Value and fighting climate change, an ethos that is shared with AET and TEFAT.
