Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council procured the supply and installation of a prefabricated storage garage at Knighton Park Depot in Leicester. The building is an agricultural-style garage measuring 16 metres by 8 metres, intended to house grounds maintenance and environmental volunteering machinery and materials. This is a goods procurement with an associated installation requirement, so relevant businesses are manufacturers, suppliers and installers of prefabricated or agricultural buildings, storage garages and similar structures. The requirement is for a complete building solution rather than the supply of loose equipment or materials. Delivery and installation are for the Council’s depot operation in Leicester, supporting the storage needs of its grounds maintenance and environmental volunteering activities.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Hansons Buildings Limited was selected for the single lot, and the contract was signed on 27 August 2026. The award date is not stated separately. The estimated lot value was £50,000 excluding VAT (£60,000 including VAT); the awarded contract value is £37,902 excluding VAT (£45,482.40 including VAT). The contract runs from 14 September 2026 to 13 March 2027, with a three-month extension option allowing it to run to 13 June 2027. The tender deadline was 23 July 2026 at 12:00, amended from an earlier date, and enquiries closed on 26 June 2026 at 16:00. Evaluation was split equally between price and quality, each weighted at 50%.

This award demonstrates demand from Leicester City Council for a small, complete prefabricated building project combining manufacture or supply with site installation. A credible future competitor would need to deliver an agricultural-style garage of comparable size, suitable for secure storage of grounds maintenance and volunteering equipment, and manage the installation at a council depot. The evaluation shows that both competitive pricing and the quality of the proposed solution matter equally, so suppliers would need clear technical responses as well as efficient cost control. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that a capable smaller building specialist could compete. Relevant experience should include prefabricated structures, agricultural or depot storage buildings, and reliable on-site installation.
