supplier not published—1 Apr 2026CancelledThe contracting authority has decided to terminate the procurement process initiated under the UK4 Tender Notice because no tenders were received by the submission deadline. As the competitive procedure did not elicit any bids, the authority is unable to proceed with the advertised competition. Following termination of the competitive process, the contracting authority will now consider next steps, including the potential to award the contract through an alternative route permitted under the Procurement Act 2023.
