              <p>The Framework Agreement will operate either a Direct Call-Off system, a Partial Further</p>
              <p>Competition or a Further Competition whereby the Buyer will engage the services of the</p>
              <p>Framework Provider through a Direct Call-off or a form of further competition or both. In accordance with CP21 the Tender Assessment Methodology, all suppliers who meet the assessment criteria will be appointed to the framework. The framework does not rank suppliers, and call-off decisions will be made based on the Buyer&#039;s operational, clinical, and technical requirements:</p>
              <p>-Continuity of Patient Care: Uninterrupted service is essential for patient safety and</p>
              <p>clinical outcomes.</p>
              <p>-Unpredictable, Ad-Hoc, or Low Volume Requirements: Demand is irregular or cannot be</p>
              <p>forecasted reliably.</p>
              <p>-Product Familiarity: End-users are familiar with the product, and switching would incur</p>
              <p>disproportionate training or adaptation costs.</p>
              <p>-Device or System Compatibility: The product must be compatible with existing systems or equipment.</p>
              <p>-Patient-Specific Clinical Requirements: A clinician has determined a specific product is</p>
              <p>necessary for an individual patient&#039;s clinical needs.</p>
              <p>-Governance, quality control, and risk (e.g. standardisation, patient safety)</p>
              <p>-Price and/or cost-effectiveness.</p>
