Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured property flood resilience works for up to 19 residential properties in Diseworth, Leicestershire. The requirement covers the design and installation of measures to reduce the risk and impact of flooding at individual homes. It is a construction works opportunity, with activity delivered in Diseworth. The buyer is a sub-central public authority responsible for commissioning the work. The scope is suited to contractors able to combine property-level flood resilience design with practical installation and construction delivery across multiple residential sites. Businesses operating in flood resilience, domestic adaptation, construction or related building works would find the requirement relevant, particularly where they can manage site-specific solutions for a group of properties rather than a single standalone project.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Whitehouse Construction Co. Limited. It used a below-threshold open competition. The original estimated value was £150,000 excluding VAT (£180,000 including VAT); the awarded contract value is £123,000 excluding VAT (£147,600 including VAT). The award was made and the contract signed on 17 July 2026. The contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 31 July 2027, with a possible one-year extension at the authority’s discretion, allowing an end date of 31 July 2028. The tender submission deadline was 22 June 2026 at noon, and enquiries closed on 10 June 2026 at noon. Evaluation was based on 60% quality, assessed through method-statement responses, and 40% price. Tenders scoring below 40% for quality could be disqualified.

This award demonstrates demand from Leicestershire County Council for property-level flood resilience delivered across residential properties in Diseworth. A credible future competitor would need practical experience designing and installing flood resilience measures in occupied or domestic settings, together with construction capability to coordinate work across several homes. The evaluation places greater emphasis on the proposed delivery method than on price, so suppliers should be able to present clear, robust method statements covering design, installation, sequencing, quality control, resident liaison and management of site-specific risks. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist flood resilience contractors and construction firms with the capacity to deliver a multi-property programme and manage defects or delayed works requiring an extension.
