## Summary

The procurement process for the project titled "AT1412 Buckle Close Principle Contractor" was initiated by Luton Council, a public authority recognised as sub-central government. This project is categorised within the construction industry, focusing on work in the UKH21 region of the United Kingdom. Currently, it is in the planning stage, with key milestones including a market engagement event scheduled for 4th November 2025. The tender process will follow an open procedure, with the submission deadline set for 6th February 2026. Furthermore, the contract period for the planned tender is expected to commence on 1st May 2026 and conclude on 21st May 2028, offering an estimated gross project value of £7.2 million.

This project provides substantial opportunities for businesses looking to expand within the construction sector. Small and medium enterprises are particularly encouraged to participate, as the tender suitability includes provisions for SMEs. Given the open procedure adopted by Luton Council, businesses specialising in construction works with capabilities to manage residential developments are well-positioned to compete. Engaging with the tender process not only allows for potential business growth through successful contract acquisition but also facilitates networking opportunities at the upcoming market engagement event, thereby bolstering industry presence and expertise. For further details and participation, businesses may contact Ms Katie Brewer at Luton Council.
