The contract primarily serves the region of England, United Kingdom. Having reached the award stage, the contract was awarded to Harrow Green Limited on 9th December 2025, with the tender period concluding on 18th July 2025.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) stand to benefit, given the contract's suitability for such businesses. Companies with experience in managing logistics and transport services within the public sector would be well-suited to compete for similar future contracts, providing services such as tenant goods removal and internal office relocations within council operations. The partnership with a large company like Harrow Green Limited also highlights opportunities for subcontracting and collaborations.
