- Awards on procedures published in the last 24 months: 113 award records on 36 procedures (70 to a single canonical supplier, 33 multi-supplier, 10 with no supplier published). 3 values come from the contract record when the award carried none; 8 awards published only a VAT-inclusive amount and are counted but not valued.
- 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: 60 of 98 published contracts carry a period end; 14 end within 18 months, 0 within 6.
