The contract has been awarded to BARCLAYS BANK PLC, reflecting their capacity to deliver high-quality banking services under a selective procurement framework. As the buyer, Bridgend County Borough Council operates as a central purchasing body, with its civic offices located in Bridgend, UKL17. The procurement, categorised under 'Economic affairs', has progressed from tender initiation to the award stage, with the contract signed on 25th November 2025. With a contract value of £312,829.12, the procurement underscores Bridgend's dedication to enhancing financial management efficiency.
