Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 2.5 bids per contract for this buyer (from 14 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £26,416,667 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.
