Lot Information
Lot 1
Continued from II.1.4 - The joint venture will operate for an initial period of 5 years with an option to extend to 5 years (a maximum duration of 10 years). The duration of contracts awarded to the joint venture will however vary. Additional information: The estimated value represents the current turnover of the range of services as presently delivered by the Council to its customers (a breakdown is set out in the procurement documents). However, potential returns will depend on many commercial factors including (but not limited to) the performance of the Provider and market conditions. These indicative figures are estimated values and the services delivered by the JV may increase or decrease (in scope and volume) and so actual demand and usage may differ over the term of the JV.
