The Tees Valley Combined Authority, a sub-central government authority in the United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process for the provision of Highways Lighting Design Services. The contract, identified as TVCA-PROC-0672, was directly awarded to EQUANS E&S SOLUTIONS LIMITED without competition due to it being below the threshold. This contract pertains to the services industry category and focuses on specialty design services. The procurement process reached the award and contract stages, with key dates including a contract signing on 5th December 2025 and a service period running from 8th December 2025 to 31st March 2026.
