Advertising and Roadside Maintenance and Support contract

Centro has published 31 notices across all categories, and 10% of its awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →
