Credit rating checks will be carried out on a regular basis, using the credit rating agency, Creditsafe Business Solutions Limited\. Any changes will be assessed \(compared with a baseline credit rating score obtained at contract award stage\) and significant changes or sustained degradation will be investigated\. ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Limited, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector\. The successful Supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement \(the Second Framework\) with ESPO Trading Limited on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself\.
