This contract, whose procurement method was direct and below threshold without competition, has entered the award stage, with the award date being 23rd June 2026. The Council is a public authority at the sub-central government level. The contract began on 16th June 2026 and is scheduled to end on 15th June 2027, with a possibility of extension until 15th June 2028.
