When this comes round again

Leicester City Council publishes Software & IT Systems work continuously — 252 notices, roughly one every 9 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

67% of Leicester City Council’s 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 →
