Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Gov Facility Services Ltd, a sub-central government authority based in London, surrounds the contract titled "GFSL-CN-24153 - Kitchen Hire". This process, classified under the industry category of goods with catering equipment, primarily took place in the United Kingdom with a focus on the UKK15 region for delivery. The tender was conducted using a limited competition method below the threshold, and has reached the award stage as of 19th February 2026. The contract, valued at £30,542, has been awarded to WESSEX EVENT HIRE LIMITED, an SME based in Langport. The contract period is set from 3rd March 2026 to 30th September 2027.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for SMEs specialising in kitchen and catering equipment hire to engage with public sector contracts, notably those operating within the detailed regions of the UK. As the process employed limited competition, it supports businesses that may not compete effectively in larger, open tenders, by providing specialised services to governmental facilities. Companies with capabilities in providing logistical solutions and high-quality catering equipment could find opportunities to grow through partnerships with public sector bodies like Gov Facility Services Ltd. This contract also opens avenues for such businesses to enhance visibility and credibility within the public procurement domain.
