    "description": "The Council estimates that the total value of the framework agreement will be PS2,000,000 over four years (PS500,000 per annum). However, this is an estimate only and whilst every effort has been made to provide an accurate estimate, the extent of the Services required will be dependent upon internal resources and the needs of service users and may therefore vary significantly. Tenderers are asked to note that the framework agreement will not result in any form of exclusivity and the Council reserves the right to procure services outside the framework agreement or to use in house resources. It is intended that framework providers will be given a fair opportunity to be awarded or tender for Services, however there will be no guaranteed volume of awarded Services to any and all framework providers or that any Services will be awarded at all."
