In brief

It is a framework worth up to £3,333,333 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 4 bids per contract for this buyer (from 6 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £3,333,333 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

North West Ambulance Service is seeking suppliers to provide the lease of standard build and possible converted passenger cars and light commercial vehicles.
