UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council is currently in the planning stage of a public procurement process aimed at securing a contractor for executing steeplejack and roofing surveys, including minor repairs, on approximately 116 multi-storey flats in the Leeds area. The contract is valued at £960,000, with a gross amount of £1,200,000, and is classified under works in the construction industry, specifically roof repair and maintenance work. Being a sub-central government authority in the United Kingdom, the initial market engagement is underway with a deadline for the Market Sounding Questionnaire set for 8th August 2025. The anticipated procurement stage will advance to tender around 1st November 2025, and work is scheduled to commence on 12th December 2026, running through to 11th December 2029, with the possibility of renewal until 11th December 2030.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses adept in high-rise building maintenance and repairs, particularly those with expertise in specialist access techniques for elevated structures. The contract requirements entail comprehensive safety inspections, minor repairs, and detailed condition assessments of external building elements, offering potential growth for contractors experienced in handling similar large-scale projects. Companies specialising in industrial climbing, facade inspections, and restoration works would find this project particularly suitable, given the scope of work involving elements such as roof coverings, lightning conductors, and external rainwater systems. Engaging with this process allows for expansion within a sector supported by stable government funding and long-term contract security.
