Summary of the contracting process

Ashford Borough Council has completed a procurement process for the provision of Cycle Hub Storage Units, aimed at enhancing cycling infrastructure in Ashford, UK. The initiative, identified under 'ASH/25/294', falls within the goods category, specifically shelters, and was conducted using an open procurement method below the threshold, allowing wide competition. The contract period spans from 18 March 2026 to 18 March 2029, with the possibility of a one-year extension. The awarded supplier, CycleHoop Ltd, will supply and install five small cycle storage units, catering to six e-bikes per unit. The tender was initially active until 17 February 2026, with the award fulfilling phase 1, as future expansions are subject to funding approval.

This tender provides substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs like CycleHoop Ltd, which specialise in sustainable transport and urban infrastructure solutions. Businesses within the cycling and ecologically-focused sectors can leverage similar procurement opportunities to scale operations and drive innovation in sustainable transport solutions. The open competition model fosters fair opportunities for varied participants, particularly those with expertise in cycle storage solutions, installation, and maintenance, allowing them to demonstrate their capabilities and establish partnerships with public sector entities such as Ashford Borough Council.
