Summary of the contracting process

Coventry City Council has concluded a public procurement process with the award of a contract for the provision of topographical and ground penetrating radar surveys. The procurement fell under a limited competition framework, in line with the Council's Contract Procedure Rules and the Procurement Act 2023. It involved a below-threshold contract that was closed, only inviting certain suppliers to participate. The survey services are to be delivered within Coventry, region UKG33, United Kingdom, aligning with the 'services' category. The contract commenced on 13 November 2025 and is set to end on 30 December 2025, though there is potential for extension if additional site options are utilised.
