Additional information:

A £130,000 maximum budget for this multiyear (5 years) contract has been allocated.

Awarded value for Year 1 is: £23,692.08

The awarded value per year may differ from the previous year depending on the market climate, thus a Variation form will be filled out each year to reflect that change and the total awarded value will increase.

For example, Year 2 spend could be £25,000 and Year 3 could be £20,000 which would bring the total awarded value up to £68,692.08

There is an option for the Buyer to terminate the contract after 3 years if necessary which is set out in the contract attached (see Special Terms).

If the Contract runs through the 5 years, the allocated budget allowance may be spent in full, but if the Contract is terminated after 3 years, a total amount less than £130,000 will have been spent.
