Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions, based in London, England, is managing a completed procurement process titled "Test1", which deals with agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products. This procurement falls under the main category of works and involves an active award status dated 24th March 2026. The procurement method utilised was classified as "Other - test", with key dates including the tender period ending on 1st February 2026, and the contract period running from 9th February to 23rd February 2026 in the United Kingdom.

This procurement could serve as a potential opportunity for large-scale businesses, particularly those specialising in agricultural and related sectors, as the awarded contract with a value of £10,000 provides a platform to expand into public sector works. However, the suitability criteria do not favour small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Large businesses that can deliver works in forestry and agriculture would be well-positioned to benefit from such contracts and potentially collaborate with significant entities like the Department for Work and Pensions to enhance their business growth and access new markets.
