 — Any company in which it has an interest or shareholding is bidding for a place on framework agreement.
 Re:allies will be hosting a Bidders Day on 14.9.2015. The event will be held at Hotel Football, 99 Sir Matt Busby Way, Stretford, M16 0SZ.

Contracts that are called off under the framework agreement may (where required) continue beyond the 48 month term of the framework agreement.
