Published justification

An RFQ Process was run for this procurement back in 2019. We received 4 competitive bids back with the winning bid having a value of £57k.

Since the contract was awarded we have been through the COVID 19 pandemic, seen huge rises within the market. There has also been major health & safety hazards that have been found during the programme of the project which has hugely delayed the project and needs to be immediately remedied.
