Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured the manufacture and supply of precast concrete components for the full replacement of a culvert structure on Earl Shilton Road, near Thurlaston in Leicestershire. The works are being managed by the Council’s Operational Highways team, but this procurement is for goods rather than construction services. The requirement is divided into two related product areas: concrete culvert units and concrete wing wall units. The components support replacement of an existing culvert that is in poor condition, forming part of a new concrete culvert structure. Relevant supply experience includes precast concrete, concrete building products, drainage-related components and highway infrastructure materials. Both lots were suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Suppliers could bid for one or both lots, and one supplier could receive both. BANAGHER PRECAST CONCRETE LIMITED was awarded both the Concrete Culverts lot and the Concrete Wing Walls lot on 12 August 2026. The award value recorded for the combined award is £58,010 excluding VAT and £69,612 including VAT; the original estimated value for each lot was £40,000 excluding VAT and £48,000 including VAT. The contract was signed on 25 August 2026 and runs from 25 August 2026 to 24 June 2027. Two bids were received for each lot, with one reaching the final stage. Suppliers had to pass mandatory and quality questions before price assessment; price carried 100% of the scored evaluation, with the lowest evaluated price receiving the highest score.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for manufactured concrete culvert and wing wall units within Leicestershire County Council’s highways programme. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would be established precast-concrete manufacturers able to produce building materials and drainage-related components to the required specification, maintain reliable production capacity and supply both product categories where appropriate. The competition was accessible to smaller businesses and social enterprises, and allowed suppliers to pursue either one lot or both, so a specialist product manufacturer could be relevant without covering the whole requirement. Credibility would also depend on answering mandatory and quality questions successfully, followed by a highly competitive evaluated price. Experience supplying highway or drainage infrastructure products would help demonstrate fit.
