## Summary

The procurement process involves a national framework agreement titled "16_22 Flooring (Supply, Fit and Refurbishment)" initiated by ESPO (East Midlands Purchasers Organisation), located in Leicester, England. This agreement is structured under the open procurement method, covering the supply and refurbishment of various floorcoverings, including carpet, vinyl, and laminate. The tender period ended on 13 May 2022, with a contract period running from 13 July 2022 to 12 July 2024, and an estimated total value of £6 million, inclusive of a potential two-year extension.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) in the flooring industry. Businesses that specialise in the supply and installation of floor coverings would be particularly suited to compete, as well as those capable of demonstrating strong financial standings and social value contributions. Furthermore, companies interested in engaging with public bodies across the UK, including local authorities and NHS entities, will find this framework a vital avenue for expansion.

In the event that a Service Provider's financial position falls below the position recorded on the Commencement Date, ESPO shall discuss the Service Provider's circumstances with the Service Provider. ESPO reserves the right to terminate the Framework Agreement by serving notice on the Service Provider in writing with effect from the date specified in such notice where (in the reasonable opinion of ESPO) there is a material detrimental change in the financial standing of the Service Provider which: * adversely impacts on the Service Provider's ability to provide the Services under this Agreement; or * could reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the Service Provider's ability to provide the Services under this Agreement. In particular, Service Providers will need to ensure that their organisation operates within a reasonable score as shall be determined by use of a credit rating agency. MI (Management information) for the framework will be collected on a quarterly basis by the Contract Support Officer (CSO). The CSO will also maintain checks to ensure that any relevant insurances continued to be held. Social Value will also be expected to be demonstrated from Service Providers and monitored throughout, particularly the right is reserved by ESPO to conduct audits in this area. 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.

An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.
