Summary of the contracting process

Carmarthenshire County Council has completed a procurement process for funeral arrangement services covering Amman-Gwendraeth, Llanelli, and Carmarthen areas, with contracts running from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2029. The procurement method employed was open competition, targeting below threshold contracts, and was split into three lots, each corresponding to a specific geographical area. The procurement status is complete, with the contract being awarded on 23rd September 2025, and the signed contracts became active as of 1st October 2025. The total value for all lots is £144,000. The main industry category is 'Services', specifically classified under 'Funeral and related services', with all activities taking place within the UK region of Carmarthenshire.

This procurement process creates significant opportunities for businesses specialising in funeral services, particularly those that can offer comprehensive solutions within the specified geographical divisions of Carmarthenshire. The contract offers potential stability and growth for companies due to its four-year term and structured lots that focus on defined areas. Even though the awarded supplier is Funeral Partners T/A Arthur Cambrey, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with similar capabilities may find similar future tenders beneficial as the procurement is already structured to accommodate and target this group. The need for funeral services ensures a steady demand, making it an appealing sector for new or existing businesses aiming to expand in the public service domain.
