The procurement falls under the goods industry category with a focus on signage and street signs. Despite transitioning through the planning and tender stages, where an open procedure was employed, the process recently concluded without proceeding to an award due to submissions not meeting budgetary constraints. The tender cancellation was documented on 22nd June 2026. This process saw pre-market engagement activities that ended on 21st April 2026, serving to align expectations with current industry standards. This tender represented an opportunity for growth for businesses proficient in supplying and erecting street signage, particularly those capable of meeting technical requirements such as reflective finishes and vandal-resistant designs. While the contract was not awarded, future opportunities may arise from the Council's renewed market engagements. Companies with experience in signage manufacturing, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs), could find this an excellent fit, provided they have robust quality and health and safety management systems. A key aspect of interest is the potential renewal options, which could support long-term growth for adept suppliers who align with the Council's regulatory and budgetary frameworks. ## Notice The Council requires the manufacture, supply, delivery and erection of single- and dual-language street nameplates across the Belfast City Council area, including wall/fence/rail-mounted and post-mounted formats. The Contractor must provide all materials, labour, equipment, posts, fixings and associated services required to produce and install nameplates to the technical standards set out in the Specification, including reflective finishes, Kindersley lettering, protective overlaminate and minimum durability requirements. The contract also includes removal and disposal of existing nameplates, reinstatement works, cleaning, and provision of annual management information. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Options: The contract includes options for the Council to purchase additional nameplates or related services during the contract period, including alternative fonts, colours, backgrounds or emblems, and the ability to add or remove items in line with Council requirements, subject to internal approvals. Renewal: Options to extend for a further 2 years (1+1). ### Planning Information This PME is being delivered through a questionnaire‑based process. Belfast City Council invites Suppliers to participate in this PME by emailing cps@belfastcity.gov.uk to request a copy of the PME questionnaire. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/058343-2026 | | Notice type | UK12 - Procurement Termination Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning, Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Jun 2026 | | Submission deadline | 15 Jun 2026 | | Future notice date | 21 Apr 2026 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Jun 2026 - 31 May 2028 | | Recurrence | 2030-05-13 | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £240,000 | | Lots value | £240,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Cancelled | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | BELFAST CITY COUNCIL | | Additional buyers | Missing | | Locality | BELFAST | | Post town | Northern Ireland | | Postcode | BT2 8DJ | | Country | Northern Ireland | | ITL 1 | TLN Northern Ireland | | ITL 2 | TLN0 Northern Ireland | | ITL 3 | TLN06 Belfast | | Local authority | Belfast | | Electoral ward | Central | | Westminster constituency | Belfast South and Mid Down | | Delivery location | TLN Northern Ireland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 34 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 34928470 - Signage - 34992000 - Signs and illuminated signs - 34992300 - Street signs - 45233290 - Installation of road signs ## Release History - 22 Jun 2026 at 08:56 - TenderCancellation - UK12 - Procurement Termination Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/058343-2026 - 11 May 2026 at 14:53 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/043139-2026 - 25 Mar 2026 at 13:46 - Planning - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/027352-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/058343-2026 22nd June 2026 - Procurement termination notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/043139-2026 11th May 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/027352-2026 25th March 2026 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://e-sourcingni.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/ - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
