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 captured in this notice includes the option to extend as noted above.
