Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council seeking a contractor to undertake street lighting works on Yew Tree Drive, Blackburn. This tender falls under the industry category of 'works', specifically for the installation of street furniture. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract being awarded on 9th April 2026 and active from 20th April 2026 until 20th October 2026. The tender followed a 'limited' procurement method, characterised by below-threshold and limited competition. The contract was awarded to Altitude Services Limited, based in Padiham, and encompasses a total value of £145,897.64. The project is located in the UKD41 region of the United Kingdom, with the legal basis outlined under UK legislation 2023/54.

This procurement offers substantial opportunities for businesses involved in construction and street lighting installation. Companies capable of delivering specialised street furniture installation services, particularly those with experience in government contracts, could find similar bids advantageous for expanding their portfolios.
