Courier Services Framework Lot 2 Specialised and Secure.

Descriptions

The scope of the Courier Framework agreement is intended to cover the collection, sorting and delivery of a range of consignments on an advanced or ad hoc basis to various locations. These consignments will be collected and delivered under specific service classes — Next Day, Same Day, UK or International and Tracked. The consignments shall include all sizes of envelopes, reports, parcels boxes and crates. There is also a requirement to transport items containing soil, tissue and biological samples.The services provided under this Framework will be used to transport evidence (biological samples and reports) which may be used in ongoing criminal investigations and will have an impact on the judicial process if there is a failure to deliver or if the packages are compromised. Whilst all items being transported will not be used for this purpose, there is an expectation that the Service Provider will treat all consignments as potentially being used for this purpose.
