Summary of the contracting process

New Forest District Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Lyndhurst, is seeking tenders for the "Noticeboard Refurbishment Programme". The project involves not only the refurbishment of seven tourism noticeboards within the district but also the installation of four new ones. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage with an open competition method, targeting primarily construction work associated with notice boards. Interested parties must submit their proposals via the Council's e-tendering solution, "Pro-Contract", by 12:00 noon on 1 December 2025. The contract, valued at a gross amount of £36,000, is slated to commence on 8 December 2025 and conclude on 31 March 2027. The industry categories involved include notice boards and construction work, with the project sites spanning across various UK regions including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK.

This tender offers significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs), given its reserved participation for these organisations. Companies involved in the construction or refurbishment of public infrastructure, particularly those with experience in signage or noticeboard development, would find this project well-suited to their capabilities. Additionally, this contract could lead to further roles in public sector contracts by enhancing a company's portfolio in similar projects, aiding in subsequent business growth opportunities. The opportunity for engagement in a government-backed project such as this could establish lasting relationships with local authorities and raise the profile of the successful tenderer in the public procurement sector.
