This requirement has been advertised with a value of £26M, however, the Authority has estimated the requirement with a range from £15M to £26M, and the values are dependant on the throughput and sales generated, and consequent return to the contractor. The estimated total throughput for this Framework is anticipated to be in the region of £65M, but this figure includes the potential return to the Authority. This is not a guarantee of business and is only an estimate based on previous throughput.
