RE: Here we go RNS NHS contract11 Sep 2018 13:58
Nowhere does the RNS say ‘licence’. It’s a framework contract. They’re very common. It’s not an order in itself, but it provides the terms, conditions, due diligence sign off etc to allow multiple subsequent orders to be placed without massive paperwork each time. You wouldn’t bother with the admin expense of entering into one unless multiple subsequent orders were anticipated.
