Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Survey and Supply of Kitchen Units and Worktops" was conducted by the Darlington Borough Council, a regional authority in the United Kingdom, specifically in the Borough of Darlington (UKC13 region). This contract, classified under the kitchen furniture and equipment category, reached the award stage and was signed on 3rd March 2026. The procurement was carried out through a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as it fell outside the scope of standard directive applications. The contract, valued at £2,000,000, involves the provision of goods, with Magnet Limited being the active supplier for this project.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of kitchen furniture and equipment, particularly those capable of serving large-scale demands. Businesses with expertise in surveying the installation sites and providing bespoke kitchen solutions will find this contract beneficial. The ability to extend the delivery for three additional 12-month periods provides ongoing business growth potential for suppliers. Large enterprises with established infrastructure and logistics are ideally suited to compete in this type of procurement, benefiting from the association with prestigious frameworks like the Northern Procurement Alliance.
