The current contract expires on 28th June 2026. The estimated contract value stated in the Tender Notice was calculated in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023 valuation requirements and took account of the contractual rebate mechanism described in the procurement documents. The estimated value stated in this Contract Details Notice reflects historic spend and does not factor in contractual rebates; as a demand led contract, the overall value may therefore vary over its term
