The evaluation process for the tender stage will include wearer trials and site visits. It is intended that up to 4 successful suppliers will each be awarded a Framework Agreement (subject to the Contracting Authority's discretion to increase the number of successful suppliers beyond 4). Participating Authorities will be able to enter into a Call-Off Agreement under the Framework Agreement following the call-off procedure. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to charge a levy to the successful suppliers as set out within the draft ITT. Where there is more than 1 successful supplier, it is intended that each Framework Agreement will have a maximum term of 8 years. It is anticipated that the successive frameworks will re-open as follows: in (i) March 2029 and (ii) between March 2032 and March 2033. These dates may be subject to change at the discretion of the Contracting Authority."
