UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Nuclear Restoration Services Limited, focuses on the supply and delivery of a new 8-tonne capacity forklift truck. The purchasing organisation, a public authority under sub-central government, is based in Warrington, United Kingdom. The procurement, categorised under goods, has been carried out through a limited competition method due to its below-threshold value. The contract was successfully awarded to W & A Geddes, a small to medium-sized enterprise, on 22nd July 2025. The contract is active and is scheduled from 23rd July 2025 to 19th December 2025, with a gross value of £93,600. Key stakeholders in this procurement process include Janet Brooke as the contact point for the buyer.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in the provision of industrial equipment and those with capabilities in logistics and supply within the UK's sub-central government market. SMEs like W & A Geddes, with expertise in delivering niche equipment such as forklift trucks, are well-suited to engage in tenders of this nature. By targeting similar procurement opportunities, businesses can expand their footprint in the public sector and increase their market share by leveraging contract fulfilment to build reputation and demonstrate value-add in public procurement networks.
