Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the provision of a "Green Book Treasury standard business case" was conducted by Sunderland City Council, a public authority within the sub-central government sector of the United Kingdom. The procurement falls under the industry category of business and management consultancy and related services, with a focus on the UKC23 region. The process, initiated as a tender and completed through direct procurement without competition, had its contract awarded to GENECON LIMITED on 8th July 2026, with the related contract active from 1st July 2026 to 30th September 2026, for a value of £37,800 gross. The entire procurement is documented under the legal basis of the UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services looking to engage with public sector projects. While the procurement method was direct, such contracts can offer an understanding of government requirements and standards that could benefit consultancy firms aiming to scale their services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can deliver specialised business cases and demonstrate agility in adapting to public sector needs are well-suited to compete in similar procurement opportunities. Participation in such tenders can enhance reputations and build strategic relationships within the public sector.
