Publisher note: The Price that was used to evaluate the commercial aspect of tender returns was not Total Contract Value but was designed to provide a specific and 'benchmarkable' price for each bidder against items that the Council could 100% quantify/need as detailed in the ITT documentation. Therefore winning bidders price does not equate to Total Contract Value. Total Contract Value is still estimated to be a maximum of £23M.
