Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council has completed the procurement process for providing a laundry service to an outdoor activity residential centre. The contract involves the collection, laundering, and delivery of bedding and towels, with The Laundry Room designated as the supplier. Located in Northallerton, the buying organisation conducted the procurement under a limited competition method, suitable for services below the threshold. The procurement stage has culminated in the award of a contract, which became active after the signing on 23rd January 2026. The contract period spans from 2nd March 2026 to 28th February 2028, with an option for a one-year extension. This initiative falls under the services industry category and within the UKE22 region, providing tailored services to meet the specific needs of the centre.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for SMEs specialising in laundry services, particularly those capable of fulfilling contracts shaped by limited competition processes. The potential for a three-year total service provision period provides a stable and predictable workload, valuable for business planning and resource allocation. The focus on accommodating a public authority contract may attract businesses looking to establish or expand their presence in public sector service delivery. The nature of the service is well-suited for SMEs that can offer reliability and quality in completing light touch regime tasks, enhancing their reputation in the community and leveraging this contract to pursue further public procurement opportunities.
