The procurement, classified under "Outdoor sports equipment," followed a direct method below the threshold—without competition—indicative of a streamlined procurement approach for sub-central government authorities. The contract was signed on 21 April 2026 and holds validity until 14 August 2026, with a gross value of £45,240.00, and a specific net contract value of £37,700.00.

This contract represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in sports facility equipment, particularly SMEs like SPORT & PLAY LIMITED, the awarded supplier.

Opportunities abound for enterprises focused on delivering goods or services within public sector sports ventures, especially those capable of fulfilling niche requirements efficiently within the determined budgetary thresholds.
