Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire County Council procured flood-prevention works for its Project Groundwater (Heighington) Property Flood Resilience Pilot Project. The requirement covers the provision and installation of property flood resilience measures for approximately nine properties in Heighington, Lincolnshire. This is a works contract focused on protecting individual homes or other properties against flood impacts through physical resilience measures. The buying organisation is Lincolnshire County Council, based in Lincoln. The work is associated with the council’s local flood resilience programme and is intended to deliver practical measures at the affected properties rather than general flood defence construction. The relevant classification is CPV 45246400, flood-prevention works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 21 July 2026 following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Whitehouse Construction Co. Ltd was awarded the contract for £125,100. The contract period runs from 20 July 2026 to 31 October 2026. The tender submission deadline was 15 July 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was treated as works and was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active, and the contract covers the full requirement for approximately nine properties rather than separately reported lots. The stated procurement route was a framework call-off, so competition was conducted among relevant framework participants.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined local demand for specialist property flood resilience delivery in Lincolnshire. Credible competitors for a future requirement would need to survey or understand property-level flood risks, recommend appropriate resilience measures, and install them across multiple properties within a short, coordinated works programme. Practical experience of flood-prevention works, construction management, resident liaison, site safety and quality assurance would be relevant. The buyer used a framework call-off rather than an open standalone tender, making framework access and a proven ability to respond to call-off competitions commercially important. The requirement was not marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that the council favoured suppliers with sufficient organisational scale and delivery capacity.
