Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council has successfully completed the procurement process for its Civils Materials and Hand Tools Framework_25. The process, which reached the contract award stage on 8th May 2025, involves the provision of goods for highways maintenance activities, classified under the Construction materials category (CPV 44100000). This framework aims to engage skilled suppliers to deliver civils materials and hand tools, split into two lots, in the region of UKF22. The procurement, conducted via an open procedure, now has active contracts with suppliers, such as Denham Procurement & Sourcing Solutions Ltd and Huws Gray Ltd for Civils Materials, and Cromwell Group Holdings among others for Hand Tools.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction materials and hand tools, especially those with competitive pricing and quality offerings. With its focus on goods required for infrastructure maintenance, companies within the construction supply chain can secure long-term engagements and forge relationships with public bodies. The framework, valued at £3,000,000, was open to a mix of large enterprises and SMEs, offering multiple opportunities for participation and business expansion, particularly in the East Midlands region. Potential suppliers with capabilities to meet specific requirements, including quality standards and delivery commitments, are well-positioned to benefit from such contracts.
