The queue includes cancelled tenders, because cancellation is almost unrecorded before September 2026 and leaving them out would make recent points fall for that reason alone; marked_cancelled counts those now marked, and it rises only because recording began. no_identifier counts tenders left out because they have no Etimad identifier and cannot be followed to an award. Most of the queue is never awarded. Counts only: contract value is not known before award. Past points use awards dated later, so they are not what could be known then. Not a forecast."}
