## Description
In line with the original Invitation to Tender documentation issued to Service Providers in respect of the Framework Agreement, the Trust now seeks to undertake a refresh of the Framework Agreement, to encompass the commercial arrangements.
This exercise is being conducted as an NHS and Local Authorities in Wales collaborative initiative with Velindre University NHS Trust (the “Trust”) acting as the procurement agent through NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership Procurement Services on behalf of all Local Health Boards and Local Authorities in Wales.
As part of the refresh exercise, Service Providers are invited, subject to the terms of this letter and the details contained within the attached documents, to:
a.	revise their prices contained within the Framework Agreement. Prices can remain the same, be adjusted downwards only
b.	apply to add new Care Home/Settings to its existing service provision for any of the available Lots (Annex 1 document to be completed); and/or
c.	revise its service provision (i) within a current Care Home/Care Setting and Lot to instead provide the services from a current Care Home/Care Setting under a different Lot to the one under which it is currently providing the services and/or (ii) to remove Care Homes/Care Settings from its service provision.
By way of information, this exercise also allows new providers to gain entry onto the Framework Agreement (as varied), subject to satisfying the Trust’s applicable minimum selection criteria.
