The tender period ended on 17th October 2024, with the contract starting on 24th October 2024 and concluding on 31st March 2025. This project covers a broad geographical scope, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the United Kingdom, and other global regions.
