Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process detailed here involves the awarding of a contract by Chesterfield Borough Council for the supply of adaptation materials, specifically intended to aid the disabled. The contract encompasses delivery within Chesterfield and is classified under the goods category. The procurement method was a direct award, justified by the best price and quality evaluation, with AKW MEDI-CARE LIMITED being the chosen supplier. This procurement falls under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54 and was awarded with the commencement date for the contract set for 1st November 2025, concluding on 31st October 2028, with an option for renewal. The procurement has completed all necessary stages and came into effect following a compliance-based evaluation process.

This tender offers significant business growth potential, especially for firms engaged in the manufacture or supply of devices for the disabled. Given its focus on delivering goods within a specific locality, businesses with a robust logistical framework and experience in handling similar supply requirements would be well-suited to compete. Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), particularly those possessing expertise in healthcare products, stand to benefit from such opportunities, as the procurement seeks a supplier capable of meeting performance metrics like product lead times and query response efficiency. Consequently, this tender offers a promising opportunity for businesses aiming to expand their customer base within the public sector.
