## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Blackpool Council, on behalf of Blackpool Airport Operations Limited, was aimed at securing a contract for the provision of air navigation and aerodrome management services at Blackpool Airport. The procurement was classified under the services category, specifically relating to air transport services (CPV code: 60400000). Notably, this tender has been cancelled after a thorough evaluation, as the Council decided to pursue an integrated management solution, further emphasising the need for direct control and flexibility in operations. Although the contract was initially advertised via a competitive procedure with negotiation, the overall procurement status is now labelled as discontinued.

This cancelled tender offers insights into potential future opportunities for businesses in the air navigation and airport management sectors. Companies involved in providing air transport services or support services for air transport may find future prospects aligned with Blackpool Airport's interests. Given the nature of this tender, businesses that can demonstrate expertise in delivering quality air navigation solutions and operational management are particularly well-suited to prepare for any forthcoming procurement activities in this realm.
