Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council commissioned pre-construction and design services for the Highways mid-rise housing scheme in Leeds, covering RIBA Stages 2 to 4. The requirement is for building consultancy work supporting the development of council housing, including design development through the specified pre-construction stages. The procurement is categorised as works, with the service classification describing building consultancy services. Delivery is in Leeds, at or around Leeds Civic Hall and the LS1 area. This opportunity is relevant to construction consultants, architectural and engineering design practices, and multidisciplinary teams able to provide coordinated design and pre-construction services for mid-rise residential development. The work is focused on one council housing growth scheme rather than general housing maintenance or routine property services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 9 September 2026 following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Morgan Sindall Construction & Infrastructure Ltd was selected for the contract, valued at £304,435.40. The contract period runs from 21 September 2026 to 4 May 2027. The tender submission deadline was 14 August 2026 at 12:00. The arrangement used a framework call-off route, so competition was restricted to suppliers eligible through the relevant framework. The published requirement covered RIBA Stages 2 to 4 for the Highways mid-rise housing scheme. The recorded procurement category is works, while the detailed classification identifies building consultancy services. The award is active and the tender status is complete.

This award demonstrates established demand from Leeds City Council for structured pre-construction and design support on mid-rise council housing schemes. A credible future competitor would need the professional capability to take residential development from RIBA Stage 2 through Stage 4, coordinating design information sufficiently for later construction activity. Relevant firms are likely to include multidisciplinary building consultants, architectural practices, engineering designers and construction-led organisations with experience of public-sector housing growth programmes. The requirement favoured a larger supplier rather than an SME or voluntary-sector organisation, indicating a need for substantial organisational capacity, technical resources and delivery assurance. The selected route was a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need access to the appropriate framework and the ability to compete within its terms.
