Additional information: As a Central Purchasing Body as defined in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Framework Agreement is open for use by Public Bodies (defined at https://www.espo.org/amfile/file/download/file/9608/) that also fall into one of the following classifications of user throughout all administrative regions of the UK: Local Authorities; Educational Establishments (including Academies); Central Government Departments and Agencies; Police, Fire & Rescue and Coastguard Emergency Services; NHS and HSC Bodies, including Ambulance Services; Registered Charities; Registered Social Landlords; The Corporate Office of the House of Lords, The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons; or any public body established by or under the Scotland Act 1998 or any Act of the Scottish Parliament.

ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Limited, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector. The successful Supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement (the Second Framework) with ESPO Trading Limited on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself. Any Second Framework agreement will be a purely commercial agreement and will, for the avoidance of doubt, not be governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. ESPO Trading Limited may enter into the second framework agreement with the successful supplier and make it available to third sector clients who themselves are not required to follow the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. Accordingly, this is provided for bidders information only. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee8e906e-6ae9-49dd-874d-afb65d281071 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large, SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 24 Jan 2023 | | Submission deadline | 18 Oct 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 6 Jan 2023 | | Contract period | 9 Jan 2023 - 8 Jan 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £90,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £90,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ESPO | | Locality | LEICESTER | | Post town | Leicester | | Postcode | LE19 1ES | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF22 Leicestershire CC and Rutland | | Local authority | Blaby | | Electoral ward | Enderby | | Westminster constituency | South Leicestershire | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 21 | | Supplier names | ASSETPROC; BWA (EUROPE; CATERING CONSULTANCY BUREAU; CITATION CONSULTING; EXCEEDING; FARE CONSULTING; INVICTUS PARTNERSHIP; LANGBROOK FINANCE; LARCH CONSULTING; MERRITT-HARRISON CATERING CONSULTANCY; NANSEN GREEN; NUWE CONSULTING; OUTSOURCING PROCUREMENT; PANACHE CREATIVE LTD (T/A PANACHE CONSULTANCY; PHP LAW; RED BOX CONSULTANCY SERVICES; SPACE SOLUTIONS (SCOTLAND; THE LITMUS PARTNERSHIP; TRAFFORD METROPOLITAN BOROUGH COUNCIL (T/A STAR; VALUE MATCH SERVICES; WLP CONSULTANCY SERVICES | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79418000 - Procurement consultancy services ## Release History - 24 Jan 2023 at 13:26 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee8e906e-6ae9-49dd-874d-afb65d281071 - 24 Jan 2023 at 13:23 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee8e906e-6ae9-49dd-874d-afb65d281071 - 20 Sep 2022 at 09:07 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/07348e7c-6805-4f1f-98d5-11178cb17217 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee8e906e-6ae9-49dd-874d-afb65d281071 24th January 2023 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/07348e7c-6805-4f1f-98d5-11178cb17217 20th September 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.eastmidstenders.org/ EastMidsTenders Procurement Portal ## Notice URLs - https://www.espo.org/ - https://www.espo.org/amfile/file/download/file/9608/ - https://www.espo.org/legal ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
