Authority: YPO
What is being bought9 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionYPO are looking for providers to be appointed onto a Framework Agreement for the provision of winter maintenance products and services. This Framework is designed to allow YPO to meet the needs of all public sector organisations by establishing an agreement for providers to deliver to YPO customers on a “direct” basis whereby the end customer places the order with YPO and YPO places the order with the provider but the provider delivers direct to the end customer. This Framework is also designed to meet the needs of YPO by establishing an agreement for providers to deliver “stock” into YPO’s distribution centre in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.
- Recurrence: There is a possibility that this framework will be subject to renewal after 3.5 years from the commencement date.
CPV: Anti-freezing preparations · De-icing agents · Environmental management · Grounds maintenance services · Ice-clearing services · Mining, basic metals and related products · Road salt · Rock salt · Salt in brine · Sea salt · Shovels · Silos · +7 more
