## Summary

Caerphilly County Borough Council has completed the procurement process for the supply of theatre and stage sound and lighting systems to the Blackwood Miners Institute, located in Hengoed, United Kingdom, under Welsh devolved regulations. The procurement, conducted through an open competition below the threshold, resulted in an award on 5th March 2026. The procurement process transitioned from its initial tender stage, which was active from 8th January 2026 until 23rd January 2026. This contract comprises two lots, one for sound systems and the other for lighting, showing completion status for both, emphasising the strategic upgrade to modern, energy-efficient infrastructure within the institute's technical capabilities, falling under the goods category.
