Technical requirements: Thirdly the decision to extend the potential duration of the contract is based entirely on the nature of the service and takes account amongst other concerns, the particularities of the doctor / patient relationship and the management of medical records which means that there are extensive and complex legal obligations surrounding the collection, use, disclosure and transfer of records and materials.
The framework agreement will be for a maximum of 7 years subject to satisfactory performance, business needs and budgetary constraints. The contract will be awarded initially for 3 years, with the option, purely at the discretion of The Council to extend for 2 x 2 year extensions.
For the avoidance of doubt, the contracting Authority confirms that the period of any contracts awarded under the framework agreement may extend beyond the date of expiry of the agreement.
The estimated total value of the any purchases pursuant to the framework agreement is in the region of 200 000 EUR annually and 1 800 000 EUR excluding VAT over the lifetime of the agreement.
It is emphasised, however, that this figure is provided strictly for indicative purposes only as there is no guaranteed expenditure under the framework agreement.
