Summary of the contracting process

Independence C I C procured the supply and fitting of slimline key safes, with an expected requirement of 500 per year. This is a building installation works requirement, focused on providing and installing key safes rather than broader building work. Delivery is described as covering the United Kingdom and a wide range of other locations, including Europe, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, as well as the rest of the world and British Overseas Territories. The buyer is Independence C I C, based in Barking. The requirement was identified under ARMI DPS Lot 7, Minor Building Works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to a supplier identified as a UK company; the published supplier name is not provided. The award date was 12 November 2024. The contract period ran from 1 December 2024 to 25 December 2025. The tender set an estimated value range of £37,500 to £45,000, while the recorded award value is £0, so the award value should not be read as the contract price. The submission deadline was 11 November 2024 at 17:00 UTC. The process was conducted through a dynamic purchasing system, as indicated by the ARMI DPS title. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable to participate. No evaluation criteria are stated.

This award shows demand from Independence C I C for the recurring supply and installation of slimline key safes at a rate of 500 a year. A credible future competitor would need to source the specified type of key safe and organise fitting at that volume, with the ability to serve the buyer’s stated range of locations. The work is a focused installation requirement rather than a large construction project, and the buyer’s stated suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises indicates that smaller organisations and social-purpose suppliers can be relevant. Suppliers with experience coordinating product supply and installation across dispersed sites would be well placed to meet the operational shape of this requirement. The award demonstrates that a UK company was selected for this work.
