Kent County Council launches a 400,000,000 GBP funding solutions framework
Suppliers of financial leasing and funding solutions can bid for a place on the 400,000,000 GBP framework to supply assets to public sector and NHS organisations.
Kent County Council is seeking suitably qualified candidates to bid to enter into framework agreements to provide financial leasing and funding solutions to customers under call-off contracts. The estimated total value of the framework is 400,000,000 GBP excluding VAT, or 480,000,000 GBP including VAT. The contract dates are estimated from 26 January 2027 to 25 January 2031 across five lots covering capped, uncapped, ICT, digital, AI, and alternative funding solutions. The procurement establishes an open framework under the Procurement Act 2023.
Suppliers offering financial leasing services for medical equipment, ICT, green technology, and vehicles may find opportunities to secure a place on the framework. The open framework structure may allow new suppliers to bid over time as the 4 years contract progresses. Organisations targeting public sector capital asset financing may use this vehicle to position for forthcoming call-off contracts.
