## Summary

Birmingham City Council has awarded a three-year contract titled "PQ0237 - Provision of a Locksmith Service" focused on providing locksmith services to a diverse client base, including business tenants, landowners, and developers around Birmingham. The contract commenced on 1st April 2020 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2023.
