This tender, classified under the goods category, concerned the removal and replacement of existing car parking equipment at West Orchards multi-storey car park in Coventry.

This award, listed as complete, saw its final stages in the contract award notice dated 11th March 2026. Although the contract start date is scheduled for 25th March 2026 and will end on 24th March 2031, it follows a pending status that surpassed a standstill period ending 23rd March 2026.
