The procurement process has reached the award stage, and it is now complete. Key dates include the contract period from 1st August 2025 to 31st August 2025, with a contract signing date of 15th July 2025. The awarded supplier is C Sansom Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Kennford, UK, and the awarding process took place as of 27th March 2026.

This tender presents potential opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in construction and outdoor infrastructure, such as those providing fencing erection services. SMEs operating in the South West region of the United Kingdom could find similar opportunities beneficial, as the procurement methods used suggest a preference for localised, competitive bids within manageable project scopes.
