## Summary

Thrive, a public authority under the sub-central government category, has completed a procurement process for the provision of a "Sales Pod" fit-out to support their Lyndhurst Scheme, slated to open in August 2026. This procurement falls under the services industry category and was conducted through a direct award to the top-ranked supplier, Focus Agency Group. The contract, initiated as part of the Pre PA2023 Framework, covers the period from 7th July 2026 to 31st August 2028, with options for two 8-month extensions if necessary. Key deliverables include advertising and marketing services, with the contracted work expected to be delivered in Ireland. The procurement was documented in a contract award notice published on 6th July 2026, aligning with legal requirements under UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses in the advertising and marketing services sector to engage in the public procurement market, as it demonstrates the potential demand for such services from sub-central government bodies like Thrive. Firms specializing in service delivery in line with public authority requirements, and who can effectively operate within the designated regions, would find this an advantageous endeavour. Given the direct award nature of this contract, larger agencies, like Focus Agency Group, who already hold a strong supplier ranking, are particularly well-suited to benefit from similar opportunities that may arise as public bodies seek efficient and streamlined procurement solutions.
