Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Lamppost Banners" project has been awarded by Lancaster City Council. The project involves erecting 30 lamppost banners throughout Lancaster & Morecambe Bay. The industry category for this project is classified under "Printed matter and related products" with the procurement focus on services. The completion of the award stage was on 21 August 2025, with the contract period starting on the same date and ending on 21 August 2028. This contract, valued at £32,000, was executed through a direct award to Bay Media, a large supplier based in London. The process was conducted under the United Kingdom's jurisdiction. Although the tender period ended on 31 July 2025, the information provides insights into potential future opportunities.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses engaged in signage, advertising, and printed materials. While Bay Media, a large company, secured this contract, the suitability criteria indicate that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) could also compete for similar future contracts, as the buying process supports them. Businesses specialising in creative advertising, outdoor marketing solutions, and logistical services related to installation and maintenance of such banners would find such contracts beneficial. Firms with the capability to perform within the specified regions, including but not limited to the United Kingdom, may find opportunities to engage in similar contracts or future projects of this nature commissioned by public organisations like Lancaster City Council.
