  • Bid counts, deadline-to-award, amendments and award-vs-estimate come from the nightly buyer analytics row; each figure’s own method and sample is behind its , the long form on Methodology.
  • Contract end dates: 98 of 464 published contracts carry a period end; 28 end within 18 months, 2 within 6.
