Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Hartlepool Waterfront Connectivity - Wayfinding" was conducted by Hartlepool Borough Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Hartlepool, United Kingdom. The procurement focused on the design, manufacture, and installation of signage along the Hartlepool waterfront, which falls under the goods category with complementary works. Being a limited procurement method, the procurement was completed below the threshold for limited competition. The critical contract associated with this process was signed on 15th May 2025, with the signage scheduled to be installed from 16th May 2025 to 15th December 2025. The project is located in the UKC11 region of the United Kingdom, showcasing its completion stage as the award has been actively made to the winning contractor.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses specialising in signage and construction materials, with the contract awarded to IS Group, an SME based in Flint, United Kingdom. As the procurement involves both goods and related construction works, businesses with expertise in these areas could benefit from similar opportunities in the future. Companies with the capacity to handle design and manufacture, alongside installation services, would be well-suited to compete in such tenders. Moreover, engaging with local council projects such as this can enhance visibility and potentially lead to further opportunities in public sector projects.
