Summary of the contracting process

Darlington Borough Council has completed a procurement process titled "ARJO SUPPLY AND SERVICE MAINTENANCE," which pertains to the services industry in the UK, specifically in the North East region. The process involved the supply and installation of three additional baths as well as the servicing and maintenance of all fitted specialist assisted baths. This was conducted through a direct procurement method without competition, and the award was concluded on 15th June 2026. The contract is valued at £50,000, with a gross amount of £60,000, and it includes an option for renewal for up to two additional years. The contract period begins on 1st July 2026 and ends on 30th June 2027, with the potential for extension until 2029.

This tender offers opportunities for businesses in the medical equipment repair and maintenance sector, particularly those capable of providing specialist services for assisted baths. Although this specific contract has been awarded to ARJO UK LIMITED, companies with similar capacities might find similar future opportunities with Darlington Borough Council or comparable public authorities. Firms that specialise in similar sectors and can deliver high-quality services will be well-positioned to pursue such contracts, facilitating business growth through engagement in public sector contracts.
