This contract, valued at £3,575 and commenced on 3rd March 2026, with a completion date of 2nd March 2027, falls under the industry category of architectural, engineering, and surveying services. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, ensuring broad competition.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities for firms specialising in surveying and architectural services. Companies that excel in topographical and utility detection processes, particularly those with cross-regional capabilities, will find this contract rewarding. While SMEs and VCSEs might find this tender less suitable due to its specific requirements, established entities like Interlocks Surveys, which won the contract, are well-suited to leverage their specialised skills to deliver the outlined services.
