Charente Eaux issued a two-year procurement for digital staff benefits on September 21, 2026. Its framework separates the supply of digital gift vouchers from digital meal vouchers, with electronic bids due by noon on October 19. The buyer portal now marks the consultation as expired. [S01] [S03]

Equal beneficiary ceilings, separate benefit requirements

Lot 2 covers digital gift vouchers for a maximum of 40 beneficiaries. Lot 1 sets the same maximum for digital meal vouchers. These are separate procurement requirements for the syndicate’s staff; the notice does not establish whether their recipient groups differ. Adding the limits would therefore overstate what is known about the number of people covered. [S02]

The data behind the story

Maximum beneficiaries specified for each staff-benefit lot

The gift-voucher and meal-voucher lots each specify capacity for up to 40 beneficiaries.

These are two separate lot limits, not measured participation. The notice does not identify distinct recipient groups, so the bars must not be added to claim 80 people. Equal beneficiary limits do not establish equal spending or voucher values.

The equal headcount limits describe the capacity sought from suppliers. They do not establish equal budgets, card loads or transaction volumes. The notice publishes no gift-voucher denomination or spending ceiling, and it provides no count of cards issued or redeemed. [S01] [S02]

The buyer identifies the procedure as an open adapted procurement and refers suppliers to the consultation rules for award criteria. The archived notice retains the two lots and 24-month duration, but its document links are no longer available for download. The published notice establishes the purchasing requirement; it does not name an appointed operator or report a contract award. [S03]
