Summary of the contracting process

The East Riding of Yorkshire Council is engaging in a public procurement process titled "Fitness Equipment PME". The council, a sub-central government authority located in Beverley, aims to gather market knowledge for the supply, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of high-quality gym equipment. This pre-market engagement, not yet a tender process, is currently in the planning stage. Interested parties are encouraged to participate in this engagement, with a scheduled milestone due date of 15th July 2026. The procurement pertains to the 'goods' category, specifically fitness equipment, and is intended to service region UKE12 (Yorkshire and the Humber) within the UK. A future notice for the procurement is planned for 9th November 2026.

This opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for suppliers of fitness equipment who can ensure robust installation and maintenance services. It is especially suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of delivering business-critical solutions. The total estimated contract value is approximately £276,000, offering a substantial opportunity for capable suppliers to establish or expand their footprint in the public sector fitness market. Engaging in this process could significantly enhance a supplier's profile and expertise within the public procurement domain, particularly in regional UK projects.
