## Summary

Reading Borough Council is currently in the planning stage of a public procurement process for the development and implementation of a Wayfinding Signage Strategy. This initiative, titled "Wayfinding Signage Strategy and Implementation," is a service-focused procurement aimed at enhancing the Civic Offices in Reading. It involves designing, fabricating, supplying, and installing RBC-branded signage across key locations, including the New Central Library and the redesigned Customer Service Area. The procurement is under a selective method, below the threshold, and part of a framework. Planned to commence on 3rd November 2025, the contract spans until 3rd July 2026. The estimated value of the project is £50,000, and it is classified under the industry category of Signage, Graphic Design Services, and Design Support Services. The primary delivery area is in Reading, located in the UKJ11 region of the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses within the signage and graphic design industry to expand their portfolio by working with a public authority. It is particularly accommodating for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), making it suitable for niche companies specialising in bespoke signage, graphic design, and design support services. The project offers a chance to establish lasting relations with a sub-central government body, potentially paving the way for future collaborations. Companies with expertise in civic and office environment enhancements will find themselves well-placed to compete effectively for this contract.
