This tender falls under the industry category of goods, specifically generators, and it was executed using a limited procurement method, aimed at below-threshold limited competition. The procurement stage is now in the "Award" phase, with the contract awarded to Prior Power Solutions Ltd as of June 9, 2026. The contract is active and spans from June 29, 2026, to October 30, 2026, with a total gross value of £109,958.40.
