The notice records one active award to a supplier identified only by Companies House identifier 08474600; no supplier legal name is supplied. The notice-level procurement value is £37,061.46, while the award record shows £0, so no award value can be stated reliably.
Published outcomeOne award is recorded, but the published data does not identify the supplier by name or confirm contract signature.
Market significanceA small, lift-related works award under an ARMI DPS lot, with materially inconsistent value fields and a very short stated contract period.
