## Summary

The London Borough of Islington is currently in the planning stage for a significant procurement process aimed at securing providers for mortuary services, titled "2526-0029 Mortuary Services". This procurement falls under the services category in the public sector and is guided by the legal framework of the UK Public General Acts 2023/54. The procurement process is being managed from Islington Town Hall in London, UK, with an anticipated contract period from 1st June 2026 to 31st March 2032. The planning notice has been published, with market engagement taking place to inform potential suppliers of upcoming opportunities. Interested parties are encouraged to express their interest by 8th December 2025, and further procurement notifications are expected around 13th April 2026.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in the provision of statutory mortuary services. Companies that possess expertise in secure storage and post-mortem facilities, as well as those that can liaise effectively with H.M. Coroner, will find this tender particularly fitting. Businesses located within close proximity to Islington or able to demonstrate compliance with relevant health and safety legislation and robust data protection standards are especially well-suited to compete. The high value of this procurement, with a gross amount of £1,920,000, underscores the project's potential for long-term business growth within the public sector services market.
