Summary of the contracting process

The University of the West of England, based in Bristol, acted as the buying organisation for a procurement process titled "Kingfisher Court - Feature Lighting to Communal Areas". The procurement, classified under the goods category and particularly focusing on lighting systems, took place in the UKK12 region. This direct procurement method was conducted below the threshold without competition, with the process now complete. The contract was signed on 5th November 2025, with the implementation period from 6th to 7th November 2025. The procurement adhered to the legal framework of the UK Public General Act 2023/54. Canada Life Limited, a large-scale supplier, was awarded the contract.

This procurement offers growth opportunities particularly for businesses specialising in lighting systems who can supply similar goods to sub-central government bodies. However, opportunities may be limited for smaller enterprises given the direct and non-competitive nature of this contract. The project scope focusing on feature lighting to communal areas indicates potential for businesses adept in specialised lighting, with a geographical focus around the Bristol area and the wider UKK12 region. Engaging with sub-central public authorities like the University of the West of England can pave the way for future collaborations and visibility in public sector projects.
