Summary of the contracting process

Norwich City Services Limited procured scaffolding works for responsive jobs. The requirement was an open order covering various scaffolding works, with the work delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a construction and access-services requirement for suppliers able to provide scaffolding work in support of responsive maintenance jobs. The published scope does not describe specific scaffolding systems, sites or individual job types, so the requirement is best understood as a general call-off arrangement for varied scaffolding work rather than a defined single installation.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Eastern Counties Scaffolding Services. Norwich City Services Limited used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, for one lot. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026 and runs from 8 September to 8 October 2026. Its value is £30,000 excluding VAT (£37,500 including VAT). No separate evaluation criteria are stated; the contract was awarded without a competitive process.

This award shows that Norwich City Services Limited buys scaffolding to support responsive maintenance work, using a direct, below-threshold route for this requirement. A credible supplier for similar work would need to mobilise for varied scaffolding jobs and deliver safely and reliably in support of reactive work, rather than relying on a single large, planned installation. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that a smaller specialist provider was capable of meeting this requirement. Scaffolding contractors with suitable operational capacity, responsive scheduling and relevant experience delivering work for a public-sector service provider are therefore the closest fit when this buyer next needs comparable support.
