supplier not published—15 May 2026CancelledA UK1 Pipeline notice was previously published for this opportunity which was intended to provide the forecast of the impending procurement opportunity in line with Section 93 of the Procurement Act 2023. There was no guarantee that a tender opportunity would have resulted from the notice and neither does it commit the Council to procuring any contract. Following a review of this opportunity it was determined this service was not going ahead within the next 18 months, therefore no further plans or details are available on this opportunity.
