Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council has successfully concluded the procurement process titled "002323 - Supply, Installation and Repair of Door Entry Systems for Domestic Properties," located in the Durham region (UKC14), United Kingdom. The procurement falls under the category of goods and is part of the health services sector, specifically catering to adult and health services for vulnerable domestic properties. This contract was awarded through a direct award method due to urgency, as the previous supplier ceased trading, thereby necessitating immediate intervention by the council. The contract commenced on 14th May 2025 and is scheduled to end on 13th May 2026, with the contract signed on 12th May 2025, valued at £60,000 gross (£50,000 net).

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in door entry system supplies and services, such as SMEs in the access control systems industry. Enterprises skilled in the swift deployment and maintenance of video and audio door entry systems stand to benefit tremendously, as the procurement was awarded without competition and highlights the council's commitment to ensuring the safety and accessibility of vulnerable residents. Companies with expertise in providing tailor-made solutions for regional government authorities will find this contract particularly relevant as it aligns with public sector objectives and offers a direct avenue for business growth within sub-central government structures.
