Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by The Council of the City of Wakefield involves the acquisition of a "Mini-Cam Solo Pro" push rod camera, categorised within the goods industry. The procurement was executed under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54 and was completed via a sub-central public authority. This tender, identified as CAP26-089, specifically involved a single lot that has been completed, with the award dated on 28th July 2026. The procurement method was below the threshold, and the contract was signed on 2nd July 2026, with the delivery location marked within the region of UKE4, United Kingdom. The contract, valued at £7,156, is active and spans until 2nd September 2026. The contact point for the buyer is available via procurement@wakefield.gov.uk.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs), especially those specialising in camera and drainage equipment, as denoted by CPV codes 38651000 and 43324000. With the contract awarded to MINICAM LTD, a Manchester-based SME, other similar businesses could find inspiration in how specialised equipment procurement by local government can create niche market opportunities. Companies within the UK, particularly those with existing capabilities in producing or supplying such niche goods, would be well-suited to participate in similar tenders. This procurement exemplifies how small firms might expand their governmental contracting portfolios by delivering specialised goods or services.
