How this framework works

From the published notice
Places

Lots and requirements (2)Procurement structure

2 lots · all with a published value · a supplier may bid for at most 2 of them · same evaluation weights on every lot

Every one of these 2 lots carries the same published figure, £300,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.
