Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council bought metal and basic metals for the Leeds Building Services workshop. This is a goods supply requirement, covering building materials and metal products for workshop use rather than construction or design services. Delivery is in Leeds and the buying organisation is Leeds City Council. The requirement is relevant to manufacturers, stockists, merchants and distributors able to supply the required metal products to a council building-services workshop. It may also suit larger engineering or materials businesses with established public-sector supply arrangements, although the published requirement is focused on supplying goods rather than providing specialist engineering work.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to CAE Engineering & Architecture Ltd. It used a below-threshold open competition, with bids submitted electronically. There was one lot, evaluated solely on price: the lowest-priced tender ranked highest and was awarded the contract. The tender had an estimated value of £99,000 excluding VAT (£118,000 including VAT). The lot was originally scheduled for 5 March 2026 to 4 March 2028. The active contract was signed on 3 August 2026, runs from 3 August 2026 to 2 August 2028, and is valued at £30,000 excluding VAT (£36,000 including VAT).

This award demonstrates that Leeds City Council has an established requirement for a reliable metal supplier supporting its building-services workshop. A future competitor would need dependable access to basic metals and related building materials, the stockholding or sourcing capability to meet workshop requirements, and the logistics to deliver consistently in Leeds. Because the published evaluation gave price 100% of the weighting, competitive cost control would be central to credibility, alongside accurate ordering, dependable fulfilment and the ability to maintain supply throughout the contract term. The successful supplier was classified as a large business, indicating that capacity and operational scale may be useful, although the requirement itself is focused on goods supply rather than a particular company size.
