Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council procured construction works to improve connections at the new Trent Crossing. The requirement was to create semi-permanent footway links from Poulton Drive to the bridge crossing on the north side, providing pedestrian access between the road and the new crossing. The work falls within the construction sector (CPV 45000000) and is to be delivered in England, specifically around Nottingham. The council is the buying organisation. The requirement was called off from its Minor Works Framework for Highways Managed Framework, indicating a highways-related construction need delivered through an established framework arrangement. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a framework call-off. The award was made to Trust Utility Management Ltd on 24 July 2026 for £51,116.85 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 27 July 2026 to 27 January 2027. The tender submission deadline was 20 July 2026 at 12:00. The stated procurement method was “Other”, with the requirement called off from the Minor Works Framework for Highways Managed Framework. The tender was classified as works and its recorded status is complete. The award is active, and the awarded supplier is a Nottingham-area small or medium-sized enterprise. No separate lot structure or detailed evaluation weighting is recorded.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Nottingham City Council for small-scale highways construction that improves pedestrian connections around bridge infrastructure. A credible future supplier would need to deliver semi-permanent footway links safely and practically, connect new routes with existing roads and crossings, and manage work in an urban public environment. Relevant capability includes general construction delivery, highways and footway works, site coordination, and the practical planning needed to maintain usable access while works are carried out. Experience of public-sector minor works frameworks or similar call-off arrangements would help a competitor show that it can work to council processes, programmes and documentation requirements. The awarded supplier was an SME, indicating that this scale of requirement can suit smaller capable contractors.
