The procurement shall be awarded under a nil value NR13C Framework Commission Agreement and be separated into 2 lots. Each Lot shall include the opportunity for the re-opening of competition between the Framework Suppliers in respect of works within the scope of the Framework which are not directly awarded to a Framework Supplier.
Lot 1 has a focus on geotechnical and earthworks project across LNE Routes. Lot 1 has an indicative value over the effective life of the Framework of Seventy Million Pounds (70 000 000 GBP). The maximum value of works which may be awarded to the Lot 1 Supplier is 140 000 000 GBP. In exceptional circumstances, including but not limited to, the insolvency of a Framework Supplier or termination of a Framework contract for the other lot, Network Rail may award further works to the Lot 1 Supplier, provided that the total Framework Value of 380 000 000 GBP is not exceeded.
The initial indicative workbank of Geotechnical works intended to be awarded directly to the Framework Supplier for each lot is included in the Procurement Documents. Each workbank shall be reviewed at least annually or more frequently if required.

Each Framework contract shall contain provision for the re-opening of competition between the Framework Suppliers in respect of contracts within the scope of this Framework which are not allocated to a workbank.
