Payment obligations depend on the applicable regime and contract. Consult the official documents.
Coverage: 4 active published awards; 4 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
The 1999 Finance Act introduced an annual tax exemption that allows employers to loan bicycles and safety equipment to employees as a tax-free benefit to reduce environmental pollution and promote healthier journeys. As a result, KCC runs typically two annual Cycle2Work schemes in pre-determined windows, usually in April and September. During this time, employees can take part in the salary sacrifice scheme and acquire bicycles and safety equipment for the primary use of commuting to and from work. They can purchase the bike and equipment at the end of the arrangement.
