Summary of the contracting process

Knowsley Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Huyton, United Kingdom, has awarded a contract for structural engineering consultancy services titled "Cavendish Walk - Structural Engineer." The procurement process, completed using a limited procurement method below the threshold for competition, culminated on the 28th of July 2025. The award was made to DGC Consulting Engineering Limited, an SME located in Liverpool, and covers services delivered in the UKD7 region for one year, with a potential six-month extension option. The contract start date coincides with the award date on the 28th of July 2025, with a scheduled future signature by 28th July at midnight.

This tender presents potential growth opportunities for small to medium-sized engineering firms specialising in structural consultancy services, particularly those that can navigate below-threshold limited competition procurements. Offering structured services within the confines of the procurement specifications can enable businesses to establish a solid footing in the public sector market, particularly in the regions surrounding Liverpool. Firms with expertise in structural engineering and a capacity to fulfil contract obligations with a modest gross amount of £17,160 may find this a beneficial line of business engagement with Knowsley Council. Such opportunities allow SMEs to expand their client base, develop strategic partnerships within government entities, and enhance their operational portfolio.
