Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured works to demolish the redundant Block W building beside Westfield Junior School in England. The scope covers site establishment and contractor mobilisation; licensed asbestos removal and disposal; full demolition; removal of demolition waste; breaking out and removing foundations where required; site clearance and making good; and preparing the site for future use. It also includes forming a hardstanding or car-parking area after demolition, subject to final design and approvals, together with associated statutory compliance requirements. This is a construction and demolition requirement linked to an education site, with the main classification covering construction work for buildings relating to education and research. The council is the public-sector buyer.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini-competition under the Minor Works Construction 2024 Framework, Lot 1. Brown & Shaw (Builders) Ltd was selected for the contract at £74,325. The award was made on 4 August 2026. The contract period runs from 5 August 2026 to 5 September 2026. The tender submission deadline was 4 August 2026. The requirement was procured as works, and the award is recorded as active while the overall tender status is complete. The contract covers the demolition, asbestos, clearance, ground-breaking and site-preparation activities described for Block W, including the proposed hardstanding or car-parking formation subject to approvals. It was not identified as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs.

For a contractor assessing future public-sector demolition work, this requirement indicates demand for a business able to manage a complete small-site demolition package at an operational education location. Credible capability would include mobilisation and site management, licensed asbestos removal and lawful disposal, structural demolition, handling and removal of demolition arisings, foundation removal, clearance, making good and preparation for a subsequent use. Experience of statutory compliance and working safely beside a school would be important, as would the ability to coordinate with the client on a hardstanding or car-park solution where design approval is required. The procurement route also shows the relevance of securing a place on an appropriate minor-works framework and competing effectively through its call-off process. A larger established construction contractor was selected for this requirement.
