Summary of the contracting process

Dover District Council, a public authority under sub-central government classification, has awarded a contract for the "Tides Tennis Centre - Lighting Replacement" project. This procurement, under the works category, falls within the realm of electrical installation work and demonstrates limited competition due to its below-threshold status.

The project is located in Dover, United Kingdom, with a total contract value of £108,000.
