The procurement process has reached the award stage, completed on 7th July 2026. The contract for the provision of advertisement services in local media has been awarded to PEOPLESCOUT LIMITED T/A TMP WORLDWIDE, a large-scale supplier based in London.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in advertising services, particularly those adept at public notices advertisements within local media. Such contracts can spur business growth by providing a stable, one-year partnership with a governmental body.
