Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by The North Yorkshire Council involves the provision of chapel music and video hardware across its crematoria. This service is classified under the 'Funeral services' industry category and is located within the UK. The procurement stage is now in the Award phase, having been completed as of 8th April 2026, with the contract signed on 1st April 2026. The process was conducted through a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure implemented without prior publication due to protection of exclusive rights. The primary buyer involved is The North Yorkshire Council, a regional or local authority situated in Northallerton, United Kingdom.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses with a focus on specialised services within the funeral industry, particularly those holding unique intellectual property rights or exclusive systems. The contract was awarded to Vivedia Ltd, emphasising the advantage for companies that provide bespoke AV solutions for crematoria environments. SMEs, especially those capable of offering exclusive or protected service solutions, would find it beneficial to compete in such niche procurement opportunities, as demonstrated by Vivedia Ltd’s success due to its exclusive rights. The overall contract value stands at £47,272.49, highlighting a substantial business growth potential for suitable suppliers.
