LCC is seeking to appoint a number of consultancy service providers via a Framework Agreement. LCC expects to have no fewer than three suppliers on the framework and no more than five. Once the Framework Agreement is in place, LCC will conduct mini-competition exercises between Consultants whenever it requires the services within the scope of the Framework Agreement.

In those instances, the relevant Consultant will not be allowed to bid. The framework contract is a two year contract with the option to extend for up to a further year. ## CPV classification Survey services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/9b486fe5-adc8-11e6-9901-0019b9f3037b) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
