The contract reserves the possibility of extending the contract for 1+1 years without a new call for tenders. 1st option year 1.8.2028 - 31.7.2029 2nd option year 1.8.2029 - 31.7.2030 The customer may activate the option years either one time or one year at a time. The contract is not divided into lots because the object of the contract forms a functionally and technically coherent whole, the division of which into lots is not appropriate and does not contribute to the execution of the contract.
