Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process, managed by Middlesbrough Council, concerns the titled contract "Cash Collection & Delivery." It falls under the industry category of business services which includes law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security. The geographical focus is within the region UKC12, Middlesbrough. The latest stage of this procurement is the award phase, with the contract being signed on 13 January 2026. This was a limited procurement method, meaning the award procedure was conducted without prior publication of a call for competition, justified by falling outside the directive scope, and based on ESPO 324F_24 Lot 1 & 2. The procurement has been completed with an active contract worth GBP 125,850 awarded to Security Plus Limited.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in secure logistics and scheduled collections, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like the awarded supplier, to explore growth potential through regional contracts. Companies with expertise in security and finance-related services could find potential in similar tenders, bolstered by their ability to offer competitive pricing, which is a decisive award criterion. Moreover, being alert to limited procurement opportunities where direct awards are made can introduce novel business avenues that bypass conventional tender calls. Businesses with robust procedures for compliance and regional experience might also have an edge in such specialized contract negotiations.
