Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derby City Council procured investigation survey works for the London Road site. The requirement is classified as construction, engineering and inspection work, focused on investigating site conditions. The site is identified as London Road in the procurement title; the recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom. This is a site-specific requirement rather than a general survey programme, with the work intended to inform activity at the London Road site. The council is the buyer, and the selected supplier is Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering Ltd. The procurement is categorised as works, although its classification describes professional architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services. The defined scope is concise: investigation survey works at the named site.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering Ltd. Derby City Council selected the supplier through a selective procedure, as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 1 March 2026. Its value is £80,725.89. The contract period runs from 2 March 2026 to 1 May 2027. The tender submission deadline was 28 February 2026. The procurement is presented as a single site-specific requirement, with no lots described. The evaluation criteria are not set out in the available process details, so the basis for choosing the successful supplier cannot be characterised beyond the recorded procurement route. The tender was marked complete, and the award is active.

For suppliers of site investigation and civil engineering services, this award shows that Derby City Council buys targeted survey work to investigate conditions at a named development site, using call-offs from a framework. The successful supplier was a large civil engineering business, which indicates the type of provider the council selected for this requirement; it does not establish that smaller firms are generally excluded. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to deliver site investigation surveys and demonstrate civil engineering capability suited to a defined site-based commission. The work is relatively focused rather than a broad, multi-site programme, so relevant technical expertise and the ability to mobilise for a discrete project are central. Framework access is commercially relevant because this award was made through a framework call-off.
