## Summary

Ipswich Borough Council had initiated a procurement process for the supply of composting toilets, targeting the agricultural and horticultural products category within the United Kingdom, specifically the UKH14 region. The procurement stage progressed from tender announcement, dated 5th February 2026, through updates and clarification deadlines, to a submission deadline set for 19th February 2026. The tender, identified as IBC/19937, employed an open competition method under a below-threshold policy, aiming to balance price and quality, with a scoring of 60% on price and 40% on quality. However, as of 4th March 2026, the contracting authority decided not to award the contract, leading to the withdrawal of the tender.

This procurement opportunity offered potential growth avenues for businesses involved in the production and supply of environmentally-friendly sanitation solutions. Companies specialising in horticultural, agricultural, or nursery products were particularly well-suited to compete in this tender. Despite the cancellation, similar future opportunities could greatly benefit enterprises aspiring to meet public sector demands for sustainable infrastructure solutions within sub-central government frameworks. Ipswich Borough Council's commitment to competitive procurement processes reflects continued prospects for businesses looking to engage in sectors prioritising ecological goods and services.
