Note: Any questions or clarifications MUST be received via the Messaging facility on this eProcurement Portal only (as also stated below).

Mixed Requirement Lot Please refer to the tender documents for further details (including further details on each of the lots / sub-lots). The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months, and ESPO may choose to use the extension period where: • The framework is performing well; • The framework continues to meet customer needs. ESPO reserves the right to implement the extension period in part, full, or in increments (such as 2x 12-month periods). The total estimated framework value stated includes the option to extend as noted above.
