## Summary

Middlesbrough Council has completed a procurement process titled "GP160 Supply and Installation of Grave Vaults" under the industry category of "Mortuary equipment and supplies".

The contract was awarded on 12th November 2024 and covers the North East region of the United Kingdom, with a contract period starting on 17th January 2025 and ending on 26th August 2027. The procurement method used was a single tender action below the threshold, with the total contract value amounting to GBP 35,000.
