The framework will be used exclusively for works and contractors/individuals located within the borough area of Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council.

Council considers that the framework is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The nature, scale and geographic focus of the works are expected to provide opportunities for local and regional contractors, including SMEs, to participate as subcontractors. Council will seek to ensure that the procurement documentation is proportionate, accessible and clear, with requirements set at a level that encourage participation from SMEs and to reduce unnecessary barriers to competition.

This notice is intended to inform interested suppliers of the Council’s proposed approach and to support openness, accountability and understanding of the Council’s procurement decisions.
