Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe contract covers the production of the official calendars and Christmas greeting cards of the Esparreguera Town Council, together with their door-to-door delivery to every household in Esparreguera. It is a mixed supply and services contract, with the supply element treated as the main component because the cost of producing and delivering the calendars is estimated to be much higher than the cost of the distribution service. Production and delivery must follow the conditions set out in the needs report and the technical specifications document.
