Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Gloucestershire Council procured the continuing supply and installation of bus shelters and associated bus infrastructure on bus routes along the A38 in South Gloucestershire. The requirement covers bus shelters (CPV 44212321) and bus-stop shelter construction work, within the goods category. It is intended to support the A38 scheme and includes infrastructure delivered at bus stops along the route. The council is the buying organisation, based at its Council Offices in Bristol. The selected supplier, Bus Shelters Limited, is based in the Vale of Glamorgan. The opportunity is relevant to manufacturers, infrastructure contractors and specialist installation businesses able to provide bus shelters and related roadside facilities in South Gloucestershire.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a call-off from the NSC framework for the supply, installation and maintenance of bus shelters for participating authorities. Bids were due by 14 April 2026 at 5pm, and the award was made on 14 April 2026. Bus Shelters Limited received the contract for £102,168.90 including the stated procurement value. The contract period runs from 23 July 2026 to 31 March 2028. The tender was marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the requirement covers a single continuing programme of additional shelters and bus infrastructure rather than separately identified lots.

For a supplier assessing future work from South Gloucestershire Council, this award demonstrates demand for complete bus-shelter delivery on a defined strategic road scheme. A credible competitor would need to combine the manufacture or supply of bus shelters with installation capability and an understanding of roadside bus infrastructure. Experience working on bus routes, coordinating site activity and delivering multiple installations would be commercially relevant. The existing framework route also shows that framework participation can provide access to this type of council requirement. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable, so the likely competitive profile includes specialist shelter manufacturers, civil engineering or highways contractors, and installation firms with the capacity to manage a continuing programme.
