Awards are collected from official public procurement notices and deduplicated so one procurement counts once. The buyer's published spellings are grouped by case, punctuation and spacing only; nothing that could mark a different body is removed, so a council and its housing department, or a trust and its charity, stay separate. An award counts here only where its notice named at least one supplier. Value is attributed only where the notice is explicit: a supplier's own itemised amount, or the whole value where one supplier was named. Awards naming several suppliers without a published split are counted and marked shared, never valued; a framework ceiling is never treated as money a supplier won; nothing is estimated. Every currency is reported separately, never summed. Contract end dates are the ones the notice published, looked for among awards published in the last 5 years. The linked source notice is authoritative.
