## Summary

Blackpool Council is initiating a public procurement process under the title "Provision of Submerged Arc Option on Blackpool and Fleetwood Tramway 2025". This tender falls under the works category, specifically focusing on welding, and is located in the region identified as UKD42 in the United Kingdom. The process is in the tender stage with an open procurement method, allowing for broad competition. Prospective bidders should note the critical deadlines: the enquiry period concludes on 9th October 2025, and the deadline for tender submission is 16th October 2025. The procurement is further divided into two specific lots: daytime works and night-time works, each with its own requirements for providing traffic management support.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity, valued at a gross amount of £2.4 million. The division into two lots, each worth £1.2 million, allows businesses to specialise in either daytime or night-time operations based on their expertise. Ideal candidates would be those with strong capabilities in welding, specifically in sub arc welding technologies, and those adept at managing traffic in complex urban environments. Given the contract's potential two-year extension, businesses that can demonstrate quality, social value, and price efficiency will be well-positioned to secure this contract and enhance their presence in public sector works.
