## Summary

Torus Group procured external signage services for delivery in the North West of England. The requirement is for signage installed or provided externally; the published description does not define particular sign types, quantities or sites. Torus Group is the buying organisation, based in St Helens. This is a services contract, rather than a purchase of signage products alone, and the stated purpose is to provide external signage. The procurement was handled by Torus Group, with the selected supplier based in Liverpool. The work is geographically relevant to businesses able to provide external signage services in the North West, particularly those equipped to serve a housing group operating from St Helens.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Brand Graphix Ltd. Torus Group used an approved waiver. The award was made on 10 August 2026, for £44,000. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2027. The tender submission deadline was 3 August 2026. No lots are identified, and the award covers one supplier. The requirement was described as external signage services; no evaluation criteria are set out in the published procurement information. The process therefore records a completed, single-supplier award rather than an ongoing competition. The awarded amount is the stated contract value; the procurement information does not describe any separate lot values or other awardees.

This award demonstrates Torus Group’s demand for externally provided signage services in the North West and gives suppliers a concrete example of the scale of work it has commissioned. A future competitor would need to deliver external signage as a service, rather than simply supply generic products, and be capable of serving the buyer’s requirements from St Helens across the relevant area. Brand Graphix Ltd, the selected supplier, is recorded as a large business, while the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Those signals suggest that businesses assessing similar work should consider whether their organisation’s scale and delivery capacity match this buyer’s approach. The approved waiver was the route used for this award, rather than an open competition.
