VI.3) Additional information
This award relates to the initial round of submissions for this open framework. This framework is opened and closed every 3 months with the intention to attract as many suppliers as can meet the selection and award requirements, as such it is difficult to estimate how much business each supplier will win under this framework and therefore the £value to each supplier.
