Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire County Council is inviting bids for its Street Lighting Maintenance Works, structured into a competitive open tender process. The council seeks suppliers for three specific lots: Dayworks, Maintenance, and Civils, with a procurement focus on street lighting maintenance within the highway maintenance industry. Key dates include the tender submission deadline on 23rd March 2026, with the contract expected to commence on 18th May 2026. The procurement falls under the works category, and the estimated contract value across all lots is £3,840,000 GBP. Interested parties can access more details and submit bids electronically through Lancashire County Council's iSupplier portal.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialised in street and highway lighting works to expand their portfolio by engaging in a framework agreement with Lancashire County Council. With the evaluation heavily weighted towards price, yet inclusive of quality and social value in specific lots, companies with competitive cost strategies and high service quality can position themselves advantageously. Smaller businesses or specialised firms in Dayworks, Maintenance cycles, or civil installations can find particular lots aligning with their expertise. The procurement approach, a call-off contract awarded sequentially by supplier rank, underscores a structured opportunity for consistent future work across the North West England region.
