Summary of the contracting process

Stockton on Tees Borough Council has completed the procurement process for pyrotechnic services required for its annual fireworks event. The contract, valued at approximately £40,000 per annum, was awarded to REACTION FIREWORKS LIMITED, an SME located in Consett, UK. This services contract, focusing on pyrotechnic services classified under CPV code 92360000, will start on 5th May 2026 and may be extended until 4th May 2029 through two twelve-month renewals. Operating within sub-central public authority classifications, the procurement was executed using a limited method below the threshold competition, reflecting the niche nature of the industry involved.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses in the pyrotechnics and events sector to engage with public authority contracts, enhancing their portfolio and community visibility. Given the specific requirements regarding fireworks provision, design, and execution, businesses specialising in pyrotechnic displays and event management, particularly those with SME status, are well-suited to benefit from such opportunities. By participating in public council events, these businesses can leverage their expertise, potentially fostering long-term relationships with local authorities and gaining greater exposure within the UK's pyrotechnic services market.
