The framework will comprise multiple Lots aligned to key consultancy disciplines and areas of expertise, including management consultancy, regulatory and strategic advisory services, programme and project support, organisational transformation, and specialist professional consultancy services. Further details of each Lot are provided within the procurement documents and subsequent sections of this notice.

Tenders submitted by email or post will not be accepted.
The framework will operate on a multi-supplier basis, with Yorkshire Water awarding call-off contracts in accordance with the procedures set out in the Framework Agreement. Prices for call-offs will be determined using the rate cards and pricing schedules established at tender, with the ability to confirm or adjust pricing where permitted by the call-off process.
Call-off contracts may be awarded either directly, where the framework provides an objective method to identify the most suitable supplier for a defined requirement, or following a further competition among the suppliers appointed to the relevant Lot. Different Lots may use different allocation routes, including direct award or mini-competitions, depending on the nature of the work.
Yorkshire Water will apply the framework rules consistently to ensure transparency, fairness and proportionality in allocating work, while enabling flexibility to meet programme needs.
