Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "BRS Phase 1 & 2 Ground Investigation" was initiated by Lichfield District Council, a sub-central government public authority located in Lichfield, United Kingdom. The tender, identified as LDC-548, falls under the industry category of architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services and covers multiple regions within the United Kingdom, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK. It concluded with the award to MEC Consulting Group Ltd on 2nd September 2025, with the contract period running from 8th September 2025 to 7th December 2025. The procurement followed a limited method due to being below threshold, indicating a restricted competition process.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the construction and engineering sectors, particularly those specialising in ground investigation services. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), like MEC Consulting Group Ltd, which was the awarded supplier, are well-positioned to partake in similar tenders given their agility and expertise in niche markets. The broad regional scope of the contract, spanning various parts of the UK, further suggests room for logistic, management, and service-oriented businesses to leverage such opportunities to expand their market reach while collaborating on diverse infrastructural projects.
