The contract is valued at £88,000 and includes the potential for extension based on performance. The process utilised PCS-Tender, providing opportunities for electronic bidding and compliance with various qualification and questionnaire requirements prior to awarding.

This contract presents substantial business growth opportunities, especially for companies specialising in facilities management and winter maintenance services.
