Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nottinghamshire County Council commissioned mural installation across multiple sites in Hucknall town centre, under the project title Hucknall Street Walk Murals for Ashfield District Council. The service covers the design of the murals, procurement of an artist and installation of the completed works. This is a creative and artistic services requirement, classified under CPV 92311000 for works of art and CPV 92312000 for artistic services. Delivery is in Hucknall town centre, Nottinghamshire, England. The buying organisation is Nottinghamshire County Council. The requirement is suited to small and medium-sized enterprises and concerns public-facing town-centre artwork rather than general construction, building maintenance or routine facilities services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award under the YPO 1141 route, rather than an open competition. The tender submission deadline was 18 June 2026. Nottinghamshire County Council awarded the contract to Reed Specialist Recruitment Limited, trading as Consultancy+, on 30 June 2026. The awarded value is £82,400 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 October 2026. The award was active when recorded. Evaluation was therefore conducted within a direct-award process rather than against a published competitive scoring model. The contract covers the full mural service, including design, artist procurement and installation across the Hucknall sites.

This award identifies a buyer investing in commissioned public art for town-centre regeneration and shows the type of supplier being used for a compact, multi-site creative delivery programme. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the ability to develop mural concepts, source and manage suitable artists, coordinate permissions and stakeholders, and install artwork safely across several public locations. Experience of working in occupied town centres, managing public-facing sites and delivering consistent artistic quality across multiple murals would strengthen a supplier’s position. Businesses should be able to combine creative commissioning with practical project management, procurement support and installation capability. The opportunity is particularly relevant to specialist arts producers, public-realm creative agencies and SMEs able to manage an end-to-end mural programme.
