Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council, representing the East Midlands Freeport, conducted a public procurement process under the Crown Commercial Service Framework RM6165, specifically Lot 1, to appoint a Multidisciplinary Consultancy. This selective procurement method employed a restricted procedure to secure the necessary professional services in the building and construction consultancy sector. The procurement, identified by tender ID DN795297, is set in the East Midlands, United Kingdom and was awarded to WSP UK Limited. The award stage was completed with a contract period starting on 1st May 2026 and ending on 30th April 2028. The contract, valued at £1,500,000, involves the provision of services classified under CPV codes 71315000 and 71530000, focusing on building services and construction consultancy services, respectively.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses skilled in multidisciplinary consultancy, particularly those with expertise in building and construction-related services. The placement of the contract with WSP UK Limited highlights the potential for large-scale enterprises within the industry to secure substantial government contracts. However, the opportunity was also open to SMEs and VCSEs, suggesting that smaller entities with the requisite expertise were also encouraged to compete. Business users looking to expand in the public sector market, especially within the East Midlands region, would find this type of tender an attractive opportunity to establish valuable government partnerships.
