Summary of the contracting process

Derby City Council commissioned Phase 2 of a post-tensioned special inspection of King Street Bridge. The services cover site investigation, reporting, testing and traffic management, combining construction-related services with industrial site investigation. The work is to be delivered in the United Kingdom, for the Council’s bridge infrastructure. This is a specialist inspection and engineering support requirement rather than general construction: suppliers would need to investigate the bridge’s post-tensioned elements, carry out appropriate testing, report their findings and manage traffic safely while site activities take place. The requirement is classified as construction work, with industrial site investigation as an additional classification. It is therefore relevant to bridge inspection, structural engineering, infrastructure investigation, testing and traffic-management businesses with the capability to deliver these activities as an integrated service.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Derby City Council used a direct award via a framework. The tender submission deadline was 11 July 2026, and the contract was awarded on 12 July 2026. AECOM Limited was selected as supplier for £61,089 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 13 July 2026 to 27 November 2026. The procurement is classified as a services contract and is suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The requirement is presented as one inspection phase covering the King Street Bridge investigation, testing, reporting and traffic management. The award is active, indicating that the selected supplier is responsible for delivering the contracted requirement during the stated period.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award provides a clear indication of Derby City Council’s demand for specialist bridge inspection services involving post-tensioned structures. A credible future competitor would need practical experience of site investigation and testing on bridges or comparable infrastructure, the ability to interpret findings and produce reliable technical reports, and arrangements for managing traffic safely around inspection work. The requirement also favours suppliers able to coordinate investigation, testing, reporting and traffic management rather than offering only one isolated activity. The Council marked the opportunity as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so smaller specialist firms and mission-led organisations with the necessary technical capability, delivery capacity and suitable partners may be well placed to compete when comparable work returns.
