Summary of the contracting process

The Forestry Commission, a sub-central government public authority, has awarded a framework contract titled "Wooden Marbles Framework" for the supply of wooden marbles. This open procurement method, resulting in a framework agreement without reopening competition, secured Wooden Balls Limited as the single supplier. The contract, valued at £600,000 gross, commenced on 6th October 2025 and will run until 22nd September 2029. The procurement process involved the award of goods, focusing on the wood industry, with delivery foreseen in the UKJ region of the United Kingdom. The most recent activities confirm the procurement stage as completed as of 10th October 2025.

This procurement presents substantial growth opportunities for SMEs interested in supplying goods within the wood industry. With a considerable contract value and a long duration, businesses specialising in sustainable wood products, capable of ensuring quality and continuous supply, will find this framework highly beneficial. Given the focus on maintaining communication, product quality, and environmental standards, companies with robust operational capabilities and a commitment to sustainability will be well-suited to compete effectively in similar future tenders. The extensive timeline allows for strategic resource allocation and potential expansions for businesses looking to build long-term relationships with governmental agencies.
