The Lots being procured under this Framework are:

- Lot 1 Data Consultancy
- Lot 2 Software Engineering including AI

- Lot 5 Web Development (Drupal, Shopify, WordPress)\*
- Lot 6 Functional Consultants & Developers for MS Dynamics 365

Suppliers will be appointed to specific service categories (“Lots”), with up to three suppliers selected per Lot.
