The Suppliers must be capable of undertaking all elements of the Framework Scope. The Framework will consist of an Active and a Reserve List.

The duration of this Framework will be a maximum of 8 years in total - a 4-year initial term with the option to extend by a further 48 months. No individual extension will be granted for a period longer than 12 months and any extension will be at the discretion of the Client.

- Price carries 70 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 7 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
- “Framework 092 Railway Approved Equipment and Services Supply” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 2 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
