This procurement is classified under the goods category and is being conducted through an open procedure. The tender was last updated on 5th January 2026, and the procurement method is set to comply with relevant Welsh devolved regulations. The tender submission deadline is 5th February 2026 at 12:00 PM, and it is aimed at public authority needs situated in the UK, specifically regions served by the UKL classification.
