Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea has completed the procurement process for a framework agreement concerning the supply of baling wire, an essential component for reprocessing operations. Located in Swansea, UKL18, the organisation operates within the general public services industry category. The procurement, initiated using an open procedure, involved bids for goods with submission and award periods originally set to conclude in February 2025, ultimately resulting in a contract award on 10th June 2025 with a total value of £169,600. The contract’s active status indicates that the framework agreement is now in effect, providing for the purchase of necessary baling wire products.

This procurement presents significant business growth opportunities for suppliers capable of delivering high-quality baling wire tailored to specific product specifications that meet the demanding reprocessing requirements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), particularly those in manufacturing and supply within the wire industry, such as Accent Wire Limited and DR Baling Wire, are well-equipped to benefit from such contracts. The emphasis on product quality and competitive pricing in the award criteria favours businesses keen on showcasing their innovation and cost-efficiency in meeting public sector needs, thereby enabling long-term partnerships and expansion in the public services market.
