Electronic auction

The Council reserves the right to use an electronic auction during the Contract period.

Electronic auctions may be used where competition is re-opened for the purposes of awarding a Competitive Order. If required, the Council will issue information on how electronic auctions will operate at the appropriate time.

Every one of these 2 lots carries the same published figure, £1,000,000: 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.
