Summary of the contracting process

Central Bedfordshire Council recently concluded a procurement process for the "CBC-1870-T-AS Housing Service Internal Decorations Leighton Buzzard Project." This project, focused on the decoration work industry, involved the provision of internal painting, decorating, and flooring installation at various sites in Leighton Buzzard. The tender was marked as urgent due to unforeseen circumstances, resulting in a shortened deadline. The procurement stage has now moved to the award phase, with the contract awarded to HJ Haywood & Son Ltd on 23rd December 2025. The contract commences on 6th January 2026 and concludes on 6th March 2026. While the project was open to various regions, including the United Kingdom and several British territories, it was not specifically aimed at small or voluntary sector enterprises.

The successful completion of this tender by HJ Haywood & Son Ltd presents a significant opportunity not only for the winning supplier but also highlights the potential for firms specialising in decoration work to engage in similar public sector projects in the future. This particular tender demonstrates that companies providing high-quality services in internal decorations and fittings can find growth opportunities within local council projects, especially those that require a rapid response to unforeseen situations. Businesses with the capability to manage tight deadlines and execute large-scale decoration projects are particularly well-suited to such opportunities, which can act as a catalyst for business growth in the service-based procurement market.
