Insurance Framework Agreement for Renfrewshire Council and participating bodies - Market engagement

Renfrewshire Council · Local authority

In brief

It is a framework worth up to £25,000,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

It is split into 14 lots, so a supplier can bid for part of the work.

Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £25,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.
