Summary of the contracting process

Melton Borough Council has concluded the award phase for the "MBC1538-Stockyard" project, concerning the design and construction aspects of its Stockyard site in Melton Mowbray, UK. The process was conducted under an open procedure with the procurement category focusing on works, specifically building construction work. The final stages saw six valid bids, with "ROBERTSON CONSTRUCTION GROUP LIMITED" emerging as the successful supplier, securing a contract valued at approximately £10.3 million. The award, pending finalisation, is scheduled to contractually commence on 14 April 2026 and to conclude by 1 January 2028. Key deadlines included the standstill period ending on 8 April 2026, emphasising a thorough consideration period.

This procurement opportunity presents potential growth avenues for firms specialised in building construction and associated services. Large construction firms like "ROBERTSON CONSTRUCTION GROUP LIMITED" are well-suited to handle the extensive design and construction needs of the Stockyard project, but the open method encourages SMEs to engage competitively, as evidenced by multiple SME bids reaching the final stage. Businesses focused on construction innovation and sustainable development may find strategic partnership opportunities, where performance in the initial design phase could lead to further contracts. The project not only reshapes the physical infrastructure but aims to boost economic vitality by integrating food production, retail, and a multicultural events space, creating an attractive destination for both independent and large enterprise expansion.
