Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process led by Manchester City Council pertains to the "Open Brook Courses and Trash Screens Maintenance" project, categorised under construction work for water projects. This award stage focuses on maintenance within the region of Manchester, United Kingdom, specifically under the jurisdiction of the Manchester City Council, a sub-central government public authority. The process has been completed with the contracts awarded to Clearway Drainage Systems Limited and Rosgal Limited, spanning from 12 May 2026 to 31 March 2029, with a potential extension up to March 2030. The open procurement method ensured a competitive framework agreement without reopening competition, which underpins this project's contractual approach, with an aggregate value of £1,680,000.

This tender represents a lucrative opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the construction and maintenance sectors. It provides a platform to secure long-term work within a government framework, thereby enhancing business growth through steady public sector contracts. Businesses adept in water project construction and maintenance, particularly those experienced in framework agreements, would find themselves well-suited to this tender. Notably, the methodology prioritises cost-efficiency by selecting the lowest priced supplier, offering a chance for businesses to demonstrate competitive pricing while ensuring quality service delivery. This not only aids in business expansion but also establishes reputational credibility within the public procurement sphere.
