Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Metro Bus Stop Works," initiated by the University of the West of England, focuses on enabling works and concrete surfacing for metro bus stops. The buying organisation is based in Bristol, and the work is categorised under various surface works, with the industry classification being "works." The procurement phase is complete, with the contract being awarded through a direct procurement method, which was executed below the procurement threshold without competition. The contract, valued at £43,419.38 gross, was signed on 19th May 2026, with the work period spanning from 20th to 21st May 2026. The procurement is a part of sub-central government activities, located in the UK Southwest (UKK12) region.

This tender presents business opportunities for companies specialising in surface works, particularly those with expertise in concrete surfacing and infrastructure projects. The procurement process's direct method, which bypasses competition, benefits small to medium enterprises (SMEs) like TERCON LIMITED, which secured the contract. Businesses in similar sectors looking to expand their portfolios in public infrastructural work within the southwestern region of the UK will find this type of tender appealing. Enterprises that can offer competitive pricing and meet the specific technical requirements of public authorities like the University of the West of England may also find such procurement processes promising for future collaborations.
