At any time during the term of the Framework the Council shall, at its discretion, open the framework to new providers. This will be achieved by publishing a new tender notice inviting expressions of interest from potential providers for the provision of the Services under the existing framework. The framework will continue on the same or substantially the same terms as this Framework Agreement and the competition will adopt the same or substantially the same conditions of participation and award criteria as those followed for the appointment of the Framework Providers. The existing Providers will not be required to submit a tender and shall remain on the framework unless otherwise agreed between the parties. The Council will award Call-Off Contracts with or without competition between providers on the Framework . The intention is that the framework will be for all new care packages from 22nd June 2026 and that legacy providers will keep their existing care packages unless removed for other reasons.",
