This procurement involves the provision of inventory and check-in/check-out services, operating on a call-off basis over an initial three-year term, with a possibility for a one-year extension. J.L.S. Independent Inventories, situated in Horsham, was awarded the contract on 3rd November 2025, representing a complete procurement stage.

Companies able to efficiently manage and deliver these services when requested stand to significantly benefit, enhancing their profiles within the public sector service domain. The contract sets a precedent for reliable business relations with sub-central governmental bodies, fostering growth and stability within the industry. It is particularly well-suited for firms with existing infrastructure in the South East of England, providing substantial prospects for increasing market presence and service footprint within regional government projects.
