## Summary

Norfolk County Council is conducting a procurement process for the project titled "Works and services to fit out a temporary mortuary," classified under the main category of works and related to the electrical installation industry. The procurement is currently at the Award stage, having been completed with the successful supplier being Norse Eastern Limited. The contract, valued at £43,033.77, was awarded on 31 March 2020, and the contract period extended from 31 March 2020 to 18 May 2020. This procurement bypassed the usual tender publication requirements due to the urgent need for mortuary capacity in response to the Covid-19 pandemic in Norfolk.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in installation services, electrical components, and project management related to emergency infrastructure. Companies that focus on the supply and installation of temporary structures, refrigerated vehicles, and safety equipment may find themselves well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders. With the pressing demands associated with public health emergencies, businesses able to respond quickly and effectively can leverage their expertise in this vital sector for growth.

## Notice
