From time to time, successful contractors may also be required to conduct quality assurance assessments on work conducted by other framework contractors. The initial estimated annual value of the framework is £120,000 excluding VAT based upon historical expenditure, however, this is an estimate only. It is likely that the volume of work required by KHT under the framework will increase for subsequent years of the framework, so annual expenditure could increase by up to 50% per annum over the framework duration. Please see the tender documents for full service requirements.
