What this export cannot show
Award values are not linked to a named supplier, and no ceiling or maximum amount is shown. Those facts stay on the official notice when the notice publishes them. A tender deadline, award dates, supplier sizes, lots, and option or renewal wording appear on contract pages only where a held notice states them. A held process counts as last at tender or planning only when that is the latest stage among the held releases. Where more than one supplier is named, the names are joint and no share is stated.
