This project falls under the digital printing services category and is located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method used was a direct single tender action, which indicates that it was below the threshold for competitive tendering. The tender period ended on 27th September 2019, with the contract commencing on 30th September 2019 and concluding on 18th October 2019. The total value of the awarded contract was £17,896.

Businesses with expertise in graphic design, installation, and large-scale signage production would be well-positioned to compete in similar procurement processes. The direct method of procurement used here may also indicate a more accessible bidding process for smaller companies looking to expand their portfolio in public sector contracts.
