    Brief

    Gateshead Council is seeking a single strategic partner to support its AI transformation programme through a Closed Framework Agreement worth up to £5,000,000 (excluding VAT). The successful supplier will deliver an initial Discovery Phase with fixed pricing, followed by additional services commissioned through individual call-off contracts as needed. This is an exclusive framework available only to Gateshead Council—no other organisations may access it. The appointed supplier will work collaboratively with the Council to define scope, requirements, and pricing for each subsequent phase based on specific business needs. The framework has no minimum expenditure guarantee, and all work beyond the Discovery Phase is subject to Council approval, available funding, and successful agreement of contract terms. Tenderers must submit fixed prices for the Discovery Phase using the provided Pricing Schedule.
