Notice Title
Specialist Advice Framework Agreement
Notice Description
THIS IS CONTRACT AWARD NOTICE AND AS SUCH THE PROCURMENT PROCESS IS COMPLETE. HIE requires a Supply Partner to identify, procure and manage specialist advisors capable of delivering advice to our clients on a case by case basis. For clarity, the Framework will not be for the delivery of advice. The delivery of advice will be provided by advisors directly to clients. However, it is recognised that some organisations may be able to undertake both elements. Delivery of advice will therefore be via a separate arrangement between the client and an advisor. It is expected that advice services will be required from 1st April 2021 for an initial period of 3 years with HIE having the option to extend for a period or periods together not exceeding 1 calendar year following the Initial Term. The total 3 year budget currently available for this Framework and for the subsequent delivery of Specialist Advice is 2.9m GBP (excluding VAT). However, for the avoidance of doubt, the overall 3 year Framework value is maximum 900k GBP (ex VAT) which relates only to the services being delivered under the Framework - the costs of the subsequent delivery of the specialist advice (whether by the Supply Partner directly, or by a third party advisor) will be paid for by HIE clients so are not included in the Framework value.
