ESPO is seeking to establish a framework agreement with a number of suppliers for the provision of scanning, storage, retrieval and associated services. The key aim of the framework will be to promote efficiencies and cost savings. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement. To reflect the different types of document management services required, the framework will be divided into following lots: • Lot 1 - Electronic document scanning services and software solutions • Lot 2 - Document storage, retrieval and associated services • Lot 3 - Total document management solutions • Lot 4 - Enhanced handling and security requirements The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period.
