Summary of the contracting process

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council has awarded a contract for the provision of Smart Street Lighting Luminaires. The procurement fell under the services category, specifically street-lighting maintenance services, and was conducted using a direct procurement method without competition, as it was below the threshold. The contractual period runs from 12 January 2026 to 30 October 2026, with operations taking place in Bradford, United Kingdom. The project has been awarded to Signify Commercial UK Limited, a large supplier based in Guildford. The contract was necessary to address delays in the procurement process, ensuring the project could be completed using the specified suite of luminaires from Signify, avoiding additional costs or delays from redesign efforts. The contract’s total value is £250,000, with an overall gross amount of £300,000, and the legal framework governing this was identified under the UKPGA 2023/54 legislation.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in smart infrastructure solutions, specifically those offering expertise in street lighting technologies and services. It highlights potential collaborations with local government bodies, such as the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council, for large suppliers or those looking to expand their footprint in public sector tenders. Firms specializing in smart city solutions, particularly those that can offer innovative maintenance or enhancement services for street lighting, would find this contract particularly suitable. As the project leverages existing design constraints, suppliers who can seamlessly integrate new technologies with current systems stand to gain a competitive advantage in subsequent public sector opportunities within the region.
