The Light Touch Regime Framework is being let under Regulations 74 to 77 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (Light Touch Regime), under which the Council has flexibility as to the process or procedure to be used when purchasing certain services, of which training is one. In this instance, the Council is establishing a framework agreement with multiple suppliers that will set out the terms and conditions for making specific purchases (call –offs). The Framework Agreement differs from those let under the non-Light Touch Regime in that the Council, exercising its flexibility, may periodically open the framework for new applicants. It is the Council’s intention that new providers will be able to join at certain intervals. It is the Council’s intention that the Light Touch Regime Framework will be open for further applications at least one per year for the life of the framework. The Council reserves the right, however, not to open the framework for new applications if it deems this appropriate. If the Council decides to open the Light Touch Regime Framework to new applicants, it will do so on the same terms and conditions and on the same criteria as stated in this Invitation to Tender, unless the Council deems that amendments are required as a result of changes in the market or changes within the Council. There is no limit to the number of providers that can be awarded a framework agreement.
