Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council has concluded a procurement process for the "Street Lighting and Signage Supplies_2026" contract, aimed at supplying and delivering goods necessary for highway street lighting and signage improvements and maintenance. The contract, valued at £7.5 million, extends from 15th June 2026 until 14th June 2029, with potential extensions up to 2031, and was awarded under an open procedure to SMITH BROS. (CAERCONAN) WHOLESALE LIMITED. The procurement was conducted to facilitate infrastructure enhancements within the Leicestershire region, aligning with public authority requirements as overseen by the council at County Hall, Leicester (postal code LE3 8RA).

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in producing street-lighting equipment, particularly those supplying street-lighting columns and related materials. It represents growth potential for suppliers meeting high-quality standards and is well-suited for medium-sized enterprises like SMITH BROS., which has been successful in similar procurement processes. Businesses capable of meeting the council's delivery and performance conditions, and those looking to expand their footprint within the public sector supply chain, especially in the East Midlands region, stand to benefit from such opportunities.
