Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council commissioned a ground-penetrating radar (GPR) survey for the Maid Marian Way and Lister Gate area in Nottingham. The work is a highways ground survey, called off from the council’s managed highways framework for topographical surveys, ground radar and drainage. The stated procurement category is construction work. Survey Hub Ltd was selected to carry out the survey. The requirement is focused on identifying and surveying underground conditions in this specific city-centre area, rather than providing a general surveying service across Nottingham. The named locations are Maid Marian Way and Lister Gate; the delivery location is Nottingham, England. The buying organisation is Nottingham City Council.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Survey Hub Ltd on 25 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £87,710. The contract period runs from 28 September 2026 to 28 March 2027. The tender response deadline was 21 September 2026 at 12:00. The work was called off from Lot 2, Ground Radar, of the CPU 5943 Topographical Survey, Ground Radar and Drainage highways managed framework. The procurement method is described as “Other”, with no further method detail. The information identifies a single requirement for the Maid Marian Way and Lister Gate area and records no separate lot values. The tender was marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria or selection requirements are stated in the available process details.

This award demonstrates demand from Nottingham City Council for a defined, area-based ground-penetrating radar survey delivered through its managed highways framework. A supplier seeking to compete when this requirement returns would need to show practical capability in ground radar surveying for highways and the ability to deliver a focused survey across a named urban area. Familiarity with framework call-off work would also be relevant, since this commission was placed through an existing highways framework rather than as a standalone procurement. Survey Hub Ltd, a small or medium-sized enterprise, was selected, and the opportunity was marked suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The work therefore provides evidence that a smaller specialist surveying business can win this type of council requirement. The award does not state particular accreditations, technical methods or capacity thresholds, so those cannot be treated as demonstrated buyer requirements.
