Published values on the notices that demand it — a floor, not a total.

This gates people, not the company. The cost and the lead time are per head, and they recur as your team changes — which makes it a hiring or partnering decision as much as a compliance one.

The demand curve

Notices demanding it per 10,000 published, by year — rate-normalised so corpus growth never masquerades as demand. Complete years only.

Method: Every count here is a floor. We match the text of the notice, and a notice description is a summary — most tender packs demand things it never mentions.“Said must” counts only explicit obligation language in the matched sentence itself; anything ambiguous is counted as a mention, never as mandatory. Trend compares rates per 10,000 notices per complete calendar year.
