Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by North Lincolnshire Council involves the provision of event security for Scunthorpe Theatres. Classified under the 'services' category in the security services industry, the procurement is based in Scunthorpe, United Kingdom. The procurement method adopted was an open competition, suitable for tenders below the financial threshold, ensuring wide participation. Initially set as an active tender with a submission deadline on 30th January 2026, this procurement stage has unfortunately been cancelled as of 2nd April 2026. The original tender process was intended to be fulfilled via electronic submissions, highlighting its accessibility.

While the tender has been cancelled, such opportunities exemplify potential business growth avenues, particularly for SMEs and VCSEs specialising in security services. The contract would have offered a substantial sum of £93,600 over a potential four-year period, inclusive of a one-year possible extension based on performance. Businesses capable of providing cost and quality competitive bids are well-suited to apply for similar tenders. Companies focusing on expanding their service portfolio in the public sector, especially those experienced or looking to enter the event security market in the UK, might find similar opportunities an advantageous route for growth.
