Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured civil engineering works to construct a stub road from the A4304 into the southern B8 development site at Lutterworth East. The approximately 30-metre carriageway is aligned with the future consented access arrangement. It is intended to provide temporary construction access and is designed to accommodate construction traffic loads, before ultimately functioning as a sacrificial kerbed hardstanding area. The work is construction rather than goods or services, and delivery is in Lutterworth East, Leicestershire, within England. The requirement is therefore relevant to contractors with experience in road construction, development access infrastructure, and associated civil engineering works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 4 August 2026 to Fitzgerald Contractors Limited. The award value is £296,933.39 excluding VAT. The contract runs from 10 August 2026 to 31 December 2026. The tender submission deadline was 14 July 2026 at 12:00. This was a call-off contract awarded through a further competition under CCS Framework RM6088, Lot 1.2.1, covering civil engineering works and minor associated building works and services in North England. The council’s published procurement estimate was £300,000. The selected supplier is Fitzgerald Contractors Limited, a large organisation based in Birmingham. The procurement category is works, with construction work as its classification.

This award demonstrates demand from Leicestershire County Council for contractors able to deliver small-scale highway and development-access infrastructure. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical civil engineering capability covering carriageway construction, temporary construction access, traffic loading and kerbed hardstanding. Experience of working to a future consented access arrangement and integrating temporary works with later development plans would be directly relevant. The requirement also indicates a need for a contractor with sufficient operational capacity to deliver a defined road package within a constrained programme, while understanding how construction traffic affects design and build quality. Suppliers seeking similar work should be able to compete through the relevant CCS civil engineering framework route and demonstrate comparable delivery experience.
