Section VI: Gwybodaeth ategol
VI.3) Gwybodaeth ychwanegol
The Contracting Authority does not intend to include a sub-contract clause as part of community benefits (as per Section 25 of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014) in this contract for the following reason:
The framework has been divided into lots to support SMEs to gain access to opportunities through the flexible framework. The nature of the services delivered are unlikely to be delivered through sub-contractors and therefore a sub-contract clause is not suitable for this type of services framework.
The Contracting Authority does not intend to include any community benefit requirements in this contract for the following reason:
The Flexible Framework does not provide a guarantee of work, therefore community benefits are not being made mandatory within the tender.
(SC Ref:792536)
A Contract Award Notice will be published on an annual basis confirming the names of providers awarded to the framework in that year.
