Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Telford and Wrekin Council procured inspection services for sports and physical education equipment for the 2027–2030 period. The requirement is classified as works, although its stated purpose is to carry out inspections rather than construction. The buyer is Telford and Wrekin Council, based in Telford, Shropshire. The delivery information includes a TF3 4JG postcode and identifies the United Kingdom, alongside a wide range of other geographical areas including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man and the rest of the world. The relevant supplier is therefore one able to inspect sports and PE equipment across the locations required by the council, with suitable operational coverage and arrangements for reporting inspection outcomes.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a selective restricted procedure. The tender deadline was 31 July 2026 at 12:00. Telford and Wrekin Council awarded the contract to Universal Services (Sports Equipment) UK on 20 August 2026. The recorded awarded value is £0. The contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030. The opportunity was classified as works and was marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active, and the awarded contract covers the stated sports and PE equipment inspection requirement for the full three-year period.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement indicates a defined council requirement for specialist inspection of sports and PE equipment. A credible competitor would need practical experience inspecting this type of equipment, the competence to identify defects or safety issues, and the ability to produce clear inspection records and reports for a public-sector client. The requirement also points to the importance of reliable scheduling and sufficient operational capacity to cover the council’s specified delivery locations. Businesses considering similar work should be able to demonstrate a dependable inspection service, appropriate technical knowledge and the organisational controls needed to manage a multi-year council contract.
