Summary of the contracting process

South Kesteven District Council procured works to install a cesspit at Uffington Road Stores in Stamford. The requirement falls within plumbing and sanitary works, covering the practical construction and installation activity needed for a cesspit facility at the council’s stores site. The buying organisation is South Kesteven District Council, a sub-central public authority based in Grantham. Delivery was associated with the Stamford area in Lincolnshire. This is a focused estates and infrastructure requirement rather than a general drainage maintenance service, so it is most relevant to contractors able to undertake cesspit installation and associated plumbing or sanitary works for public-sector premises. The procurement comprised one completed lot covering the installation requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. One supplier, RUTLAND DRAINAGE LIMITED, was awarded the single lot. The award was active, while the resulting contract was signed on 9 March 2025 and ran from 10 March 2025 to 15 March 2025. Its gross value was £37,944 including VAT, with a final gross value of £37,944 and a net final value of £31,620. The contract was terminated on 17 August 2026; the recorded reason was that the contract had been completed. The award record does not provide an award date or a stated evaluation weighting. The requirement was below the applicable threshold and used limited competition rather than an open tender.

This completed procurement demonstrates demand from South Kesteven District Council for small, defined drainage infrastructure works at council premises. A credible future supplier would need practical expertise in cesspit installation, plumbing and sanitary works, and the ability to deliver a complete installation at an operational public-sector site. Relevant experience should include planning and carrying out drainage-related works safely, coordinating site activity, and providing workmanship suitable for council-owned facilities. The previous supplier was recorded as an SME, indicating that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller specialist contractor rather than only by a major national firm. Suppliers targeting similar work from this buyer should be able to respond to a limited-competition route and demonstrate focused technical capability in cesspit and drainage installation.
