Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Supply of Timber Components for Public Rights of Way Furniture" was conducted by Cheshire East Council, a public authority within sub-central government in the UK, specifically located at Delamere House, Crewe. This contract falls under the industry category of goods, specifically timber, and involves the provision of timber components on a call-off basis as needed for public rights of way furniture. The procurement was carried out using an open competition method and was recently completed, with the award date recorded as 14th November 2025. The contract is set to span from 25th October 2025 to 24th October 2027, including options for further renewal, located within the UKD62 region.

The open competition method employed indicates a favourable landscape for new entrants to participate, especially those with the capability to supply timber elements on a variable demand basis. Businesses with a strong track record in delivering quality timber products to governmental bodies, and that can meet flexible supply schedules, would be well-suited to compete for such tenders. Given the scale and renewal prospects, suppliers can expect prolonged engagement and the opportunity to establish longstanding business relationships with Cheshire East Council.
