Coverage: 53 active published awards; 52 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 Unpublished data stays unknown.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.

Procedure rationaleThis contract was awarded through a direct call‑off from the ESPO Framework 3S‑22, which was itself tendered in full compliance. Because framework agreements already undergo a compliant competitive tender process at the point they are established, contracting authorities are legally permitted to award call‑off contracts without publishing a new call for competition.
