Framework Call-off Notices
The framework is only the beginning of the procurement.
What call-off notices contain
| Element | Detail |
|---|---|
| Framework reference | Which agreement the call-off sits under |
| Scope | What this specific order covers |
| Value | Call-off value and pricing basis |
| Selection method | Direct award or mini-competition |
| Timeline | Response and delivery dates |
Where suppliers lose out
- Missing a mini-competition notice buried in a portal.
- Assuming the framework price is the price for every call-off.
- Not tracking the cumulative value against the framework ceiling.
Call-off rules are set in the framework agreement. Read them before bidding on the framework itself.
