Can I win this?

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £66,666,667 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Bracknell Forest Council is re tendering the Home Care Framework for the provision of Home care services. The framework will be used to commission home care services that ensure residents receive the right support in a way that is efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective. We are seeking Pre Market Engagement to help the Council in designing and structuring the new Home care framework. Please follow this link to access the pre market engagement questionnaire: https://sebp.due-north.com/
