What this isn't telling you

Invoiced totals reflect only published >£500 payments from councils we've ingested. Contract totals come from Find a Tender / Contracts Finder award notices. Where a contract goes through a framework (Crown Commercial Service, ESPO, etc.), this view shows what we have in the published data — for post-Feb-2025 awards the underlying delivery contractor may differ from the framework operator.
