## Summary

The public procurement process for the project titled "Canterbury Gardens Staircases" was conducted by FORHOUSING LIMITED, a sub-central government public authority located in Eccles, UK, with operations spanning regions such as UKD3, UKD4, UKD6, and UKD7. The tender, initiated under an open procurement method, involved the replacement of existing metal staircases with galvanised steel structures. This process, categorised under the construction industry, reached the award stage with a completion status as of 11th November 2025. Interested suppliers noted that the contract period is set from 2nd January 2026 to 30th October 2026.

This tender presented an excellent opportunity for SMEs, particularly those specialising in construction and fabrication work, given its focus on construction services below the threshold of open competition. Swann Engineering Group Limited, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Braintree, Essex, was successfully awarded the contract valued at £400,000 for its capabilities in handling such works. This contract not only offers financial growth but also the potential for long-term partnerships and further business exploits in regional public infrastructure projects. Businesses with experience in similar works and established reputations in the public sector would find this tender aligned with their growth strategy.
