Note: This notice replaces the previously issued notice for the same contract (which has now been withdrawn) to correct an administrative error in relation to the published value. The Original Notice: Published date: 1 June 2021 titled "LOT 3 - Security, Grapevine and Business Support Services" was raised via Post Office's Web3 Portal.
