The tender submission deadline is set for 5th March 2018, and all proposals must be submitted exclusively via the In-Tend portal.

This procurement is being divided into Lots. Suppliers are welcome to bid for either Lot 1, Lot 2 or both Lots. Therefore, the outcome will result in either one or two Contracts depending on whether one or two Suppliers are successful. The Contract/s will be let for 5 years and 3 months, from 1st June 2018 - 31st August 2023, with the option to extend for a further 2 years, on a +1 +1 basis, reviewed annually.
