The Framework Agreement In Procurement is a strategic procurement instrument used in Nigerian public sector contracting to establish long-term relationships with suppliers. It is particularly valuable when a contracting authority expects to have recurring needs for goods, works, or services but is uncertain about the exact quantities or timing. This document type complies with the Nigerian Public Procurement Act 2007 and related regulations, providing a compliant structure for subsequent call-off contracts. The agreement typically covers pricing mechanisms, quality standards, call-off procedures, and performance requirements, while allowing flexibility in actual purchasing. It's designed to reduce procurement time and costs, ensure consistency in terms and conditions, and maintain competitive tension among suppliers where multiple suppliers are appointed.
