Data coverage & method
- Source: Find a Tender OCDS releases; mixed PCR 2015 / Procurement Act 2023 history — no legal-regime label is applied.
- Counts are procedures (one notice family), not lots. Authority cluster = canonical buyer plus beneficiary and procuring-entity roles.
- Published procedure values exist on a minority of notices; their lifetime sum (£2.9m, ceilings stripped) is a catalogue fact, not spend, and is not shown as a headline.
- Awards on procedures published in the last 24 months: 1 award records on 1 procedures (1 to a single canonical supplier, 0 multi-supplier). Typical award uses single-supplier VAT-exclusive GBP values below £5bn, excludes framework/DPS ceilings and — as a heuristic for republished framework totals — any amount repeated three or more times inside this authority’s 24-month awards; 0 values come from the contract record when the award carried none.
- Contract end dates: 1 of 1 published contracts carry a period end; 0 end within 18 months, 0 within 6.
- Never shown: contact details, predicted winners, payment behaviour, or “who to invite”.
