UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Ashford Borough Council initially undertook a procurement process titled "Kitchen Refurbishment," categorised under refurbishment works in the construction industry. Located in Ashford within the United Kingdom, the process was at the tender stage when it was eventually withdrawn on 29th July 2025. The council planned to utilise the notices from a subsequent refurbishment project that combined the kitchen and bathroom refurbishment works, with future notices expected by 1st August 2025. Key details included that the intended duration for the contract was from 1st November 2025 to 31st October 2030.

This procurement project, although withdrawn, initially offered significant business growth opportunities for construction firms specialising in refurbishment. Organisations adept in managing long-term projects with a focus on refurbishment work, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), were ideally suited to compete for such tenders. It presented a lucrative opportunity for businesses looking to partner with public authorities like Ashford Borough Council, which operate in the sub-central government sector, providing avenues for involvement in prolonged construction works and upgrades within the region.
