UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Bin Lift Weighers" was led by Lancaster City Council, located at Lancaster Town Hall, Dalton Square, Lancaster, United Kingdom. This tender, focused on the goods category, involved the purchase of three bin lift weighers for a university contract. The procurement was conducted using a direct procurement method below the threshold without competition, and it has been completed. The main contract started on 9th July 2026 and will conclude on 31st January 2027, with a contract value of £64,195.

This tender creates opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses in the scales and weighing equipment industry. Although this specific procurement did not involve competitive bidding, similar contracts could provide substantial opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), such as Dennis Eagle Ltd, which was awarded this contract. Businesses with expertise in manufacturing or supplying advanced weighing systems could find future procurement processes within sub-central government authorities beneficial for expanding their market presence.
