Under the framework contracts can only be awarded to the approved framework providers. The Council will identify the call-off route which best meets its requirements but retains the option to use either method. Call-off without competition - The provider ranked first for each Lot will be approached to confirm if they are able to meet the Council's timescales and confirm their costs to deliver the goods/services. If they are able to do so, they will be awarded the Call-Off Contract. Further competition - All the providers for the relevant Lot of the framework will be invited to tender for the goods/services. Only those providers awarded under each Lot will be able to tender for competition within the individual lot. A maximum of 3 Providers will be appointed to each lot.",
