Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council has completed the procurement process for the design-and-build project at Airfield Business Park, Market Harborough, located north west of Harborough’s town centre and accessible via the B6087 Harborough Road. Classified under the "Construction work" industry category (CPV: 45000000), this process was carried out through an open procedure to appoint a Principal Contractor. The project entails constructing nine light industrial units and two drive-thru restaurants, including all necessary external works and services. Initially tendered with deadlines extended a few times, the contract was eventually awarded to Britcon (UK) Limited on 7th November 2024, with the contract valued at £14,000,000 and scheduled to complete by 6th June 2025 for units A1 and B1.

This contract offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction work, particularly those specialising in design-and-build projects. SMEs will find this tender beneficial as the project requirements and scale align well with their capabilities, as reflected by the three bids received, all of which came from SMEs. The project’s emphasis on quality and social value within its award criteria also makes it attractive for companies looking to highlight these aspects in their work. By participating in such high-profile regional projects, businesses can strengthen their portfolio and potentially access further public sector opportunities in the future.
