Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council procured footway improvement works across the north and west areas of Kingston upon Hull. The requirement covers construction and civil engineering work associated with improving public footways. Work is delivered within Hull, with the council acting as the buyer and responsible public authority. The procurement is relevant to contractors that undertake highway, paving, footway renewal, groundwork or related civil engineering works for local authorities. It concerns physical works rather than consultancy, supplies or routine facilities services. The single requirement covers the whole procurement, rather than separate service categories, and is focused on improvements to the council’s local footway network in the specified areas of the city.

The procurement has been completed following a one-stage open procedure for a below-threshold competition. Tenders were due by 23 June 2026 at 11:00, with enquiries closing on 19 June 2026 at 16:00. The contract was awarded to S & R Groundworks & Civil Engineering Limited on 21 July 2026. The estimated value was £205,000 excluding VAT, or £246,000 including VAT; the signed contract value is £195,163.31 excluding VAT, or £234,195.97 including VAT. The contract period runs from 27 July 2026 to 16 November 2026, with no extension option. There was one lot. Evaluation was based on price at 70% and quality, including social value, at 30%.

This award demonstrates demand from Hull City Council for short-duration, local footway improvement and civil engineering delivery. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable specialist contractor rather than only by a major national civil engineering group. A credible future competitor would need practical experience in footway or highway improvement works, the plant, labour and site-management capacity to complete civil engineering activity across Hull, and the ability to provide a reliable, competitively priced delivery plan. Strong quality evidence and a clear social value offer would matter alongside price, since non-price considerations formed a substantial part of the evaluation.
