Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council is planning a procurement process for the refurbishment work at 86 Leycroft Road, Leicester. The contracting authority is a sub-central government public authority, and the procurement is currently in the planning stage. This tender falls under the construction industry category with the main procurement category being works. The project involves reinstating a fire-damaged section of a building to develop a fully functional workshop for vehicle repair and maintenance, including a new MOT and Taxi testing centre. Key dates include the future notice to be published by 24th November 2025, and the contract period is planned to run from 23rd March 2026 to 23rd November 2026, with potential extension until 23rd March 2027.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for construction businesses, particularly those specialising in vehicle workshop design and construction. Companies with experience in large-scale refurbishments or those looking to expand into the public sector in Leicester or the broader UK construction market would find this contract particularly attractive. With a focus on vehicle maintenance facilities, businesses that provide specialised construction services for such environments, including design services, are well-suited to compete. Engaging with Leicester City Council presents a chance for long-term collaboration and an entry point into future public-sector contracts as the authority has a robust procurement capability.
