This process is in the planning stage and focuses on the supply of goods in the 'Batteries' category, with a contract value grossing £2,400,000. The project is located in London, with Trinity House acting as the managing body for the regions of England, Wales, The Channel Islands, and Gibraltar. This opportunity may also extend to The Northern Lighthouse Board and The Commissioners of Irish Lights, subject to compliance. The potential contract period starts from 1st December 2025 and could extend up to November 2030. The future notice date for this tender is set for 28th May 2025.

This tender presents a valuable growth opportunity for businesses specialising in battery supply, especially those capable of entering a framework agreement.
