UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council has completed the procurement process for the publicity of planning applications and public notices, awarding the contract to Anderson Spratt Group T/A ASG. The contract involves providing advertising services in the Lisburn area, Northern Ireland, and is specifically for placing weekly lists of planning applications and consents as per the relevant regulations. This retender is under the Northern Irish devolved regulations with a direct procurement method due to its below-threshold status. The contract, valued at £130,500, starts on 1st July 2025 and spans two years, with the option for extension for an additional year based on performance. Businesses in the advertising industry located within the region might find such opportunities engaging and rewarding.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in advertising services, especially those capable of handling public notices and planning applications. Given the Council's requirement for a delivery organisation, firms with expertise in local governmental advertising may thrive under this contract. As the initiative involves planned renewals and fixed prices, businesses that can offer competitive rates while meeting Living Wage standards would be well-suited to this engagement. Moreover, it opens doors for companies looking to establish or expand their foothold in the Northern Irish market, aligning with the Council's commitment to service continuity and community engagement.
