National Framework Agreement for the provision of Asset and Contract Lifecycle Management Services

Update March 2026: This notice is being published to extend the duration of the framework agreement only. This extension in duration is required to allow users of the framework to conclude a procurement as otherwise they would suffer significant inconvenience. All other aspects of the Contract Award Notice (reference 2022/S 000-005634) published in March 2022 remain the same. This framework agreement will be extended for a period of 3 months. ======================================================== The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust's Commercial Procurement Service wishes to establish a new framework to enable and support continued asset and contract lifecycle management within the NHS and wider public sector. The purpose of this Framework is to enable a provider to increase efficiency against traditional contract letting and management methods, whilst maintaining or improving high standards of delivery. The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust's Commercial Procurement Service anticipates appointing the highest scoring Tenderer (which has met the minimum requirements which are set out in these ITT documents) to supply the services detailed within the specification at SCHEDULE A FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT SPECIFICATION.
