About

The contract is expected to start in April 2026 for an initial two-year period, with a possible one-year extension at the authority’s discretion, and a total value of £297,000 inclusive of VAT (£99,000 per annum inclusive of VAT). This is a regulated below-threshold, light-touch procurement governed only by the applicable provisions of the Procurement Act 2023.
