Located in St Helens, United Kingdom, the process falls under the public authority's sub-central government as a buyer. The procurement was in the tender stage, using an open procedure as part of a framework agreement with a light-touch special regime. The tender period ended on 5 June 2026, and the award was anticipated by 3 September 2026. Initially, St Helens Council cancelled the award due to revised commissioning requirements, aiming to offer a revised tender by 20 July 2026 with more flexible specifications. This indicates a proactive approach to ensuring the procurement fully aligns with the evolving needs of the community.
