Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Armouries Museum, a central government public authority based in Leeds, has completed the procurement process for the project titled "Fort Nelson Ramps," involving the purchase of off-site fabricated ramps aimed at enhancing wheelchair accessibility to a museum's ground floor. Classified under the goods category and specifically relevant to the purchase of miscellaneous structures and cast-iron products, the procurement method was identified as "Below threshold - unknown". The contracting stage has reached completion, with T COLEBORN AND SON LIMITED awarded the contract. The contract, valued at £50,800, was signed on 16th October 2025 and is set to run from 20th October 2025 to 28th February 2026.

This opportunity is particularly beneficial for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) within the architectural and construction industry, particularly those specialising in the manufacture and supply of metallic structures and accessibility solutions. Businesses with capabilities to fabricate custom metallic accessibility products could find substantial growth potential in similar procurement contracts by central government bodies. Such projects not only provide substantial revenue opportunities but also enhance a company's profile through association with public sector initiatives aimed at improving inclusivity and accessibility. Engaging in contracts like this can provide reputational benefits and increase opportunities for future public sector collaborations.
