Applicants should note that the total value of the contract cannot be definitively estimated at this stage, and for this reason the value set out above is an estimated value only. The ultimate value of the contract will depend on a variety of factors, including the tendered fees and rates, and the extent to which planned options or extensions are implemented under the contract or included within the overall scope. The actual value of the contract may be higher or lower. Applicants should note that the estimated total value provided does not represent guaranteed expenditure under the contract.
Applicants should also note that the authority will not necessarily terminate the contract purely because the spend exceeds the estimated value set out in this contract notice; the estimated total value provided with this notice shall not be a limit upon the total potential value of the contract.
