Summary of the contracting process

The University of Salford, acting as the contracting authority, has concluded a procurement process for the supply and installation of a new stage floor at The New Adelphi Theatre. The procurement method employed was a direct award due to the unique nature of the product, which precluded the possibility of sourcing from alternative suppliers. The contract was awarded to BRITISH HARLEQUIN PLC, and the process has reached the award stage. The procurement falls under the industry category of works, and it is valued at £36,380.54. The contract's legal basis is aligned with the UK Public General Acts of 2023. The key dates for this contract include a signing date of 23 June 2026, with the contract period spanning from 24 August 2026 to 1 October 2026, located in Salford, United Kingdom (Region UKD34).
