The Framework Agreements differ from those let under the non-light touch regime in that the Council, exercising its flexibility, will re-open it quarterly for new applicants throughout its term and reserves the right to extend the framework from its 48 month initial term for an additional 48 months, in two period of 24 months. Contracts awarded under the Framework Agreement may have a maximum total duration of 10 years. With the consent of Norfolk County Council, this Framework can be used by any District Council, any Public Sector body, any Educational establishment and NHS bodies operating in the geographical county of Norfolk or in any adjoining counties. The estimated value has been calculated based on the estimated annual levy payable by Norfolk County Council multiplied by the maximum length of the framework. We have estimated a value based on the assumption that all those organisations who have indicated they will use the Framework will do so and added these figures together.

The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court. Proceedings must be brought within 30 days from the date of knowledge(the date on which the economic operator first knew or ought to have known that grounds for starting the proceedings had arisen) unless the Court considers that there is good reason for extending the period within which proceedings may be brought, in which case the Court may extend that period up to a maximum of 3 months from the date of knowledge.
