    "description": "This is a Prior Information Notice to advise of upcoming procuremnet activity from Zero Waste Scotland to replace a number of existing contracts which are coming to an end, with one multi lot Framework. Zero Waste Scotland exists to accelerate Scotland's progress to a circular economy by inspiring businesses to keep materials and resources in use for as long as possible and inspiring citizens to reduce, reuse and recycle. Therefore we want to procure the services for the provision of a Communications Framework. Zero Waste Scotland intends to undertake an Open Procedure to procure this framework agreement, in accordance with regulation 28 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. Zero Waste Scotland anticipates that the Communications framework agreement will be for a maximum period of four (4) years, including all optional extension periods, and will have a maximum value of 7million GBP, exclusive of VAT. We anticipate that this will be a multi Lot agreement, each with single Supplier ,to ensure consistency between inter-related outputs from the various call off projects from each Lot over the term of the agreement. The Supplier awarded under each lot of this framework agreement must be able to provide all services that will be identified in the Invitation to Tender document. However, economic operators are not required or expected to be able to provide all of those services themselves and are encouraged to investigate opportunities for partnership working and / or sub-contracting arrangements where this would ensure appropriate coverage / and provide additional capacity for delivery of call off projects.
