Located in Canterbury, UK, the process involved a direct procurement method, categorised as below threshold - without competition, suggesting a streamlined approach. The contract, which was awarded to M25 Ground Works Limited, commenced on 3rd November 2025 and concluded on 31st December 2025, with key documents published on 4th December 2025. The legal basis of this procurement aligns with the UKPGA 2023/54. The supply of subsidence-related ground work was completed for a gross amount of £32,400.
