Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council commissioned footpath improvement works in West Carr, Kingston upon Hull. The work is classified as civil engineering and construction, and concerns improvements to local footpaths. The delivery location is Hull. This is a single package of works rather than several separate lots, so the requirement was for a contractor able to deliver the improvements as one project. The council is the buyer and the contract is with RJR Group (ENG) Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise based in Skegness. The project is specific to West Carr footpaths; suppliers specialising in footpath or related civil engineering works are the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to RJR Group (ENG) Limited. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026 and runs from 26 October 2026 to 15 January 2027. Its value is £108,277.10 excluding VAT (£129,932.52 including VAT). The original estimated value was £116,000 excluding VAT (£139,200 including VAT). Hull City Council used an open competition below the relevant threshold. The tender submission deadline was 10 August 2026, with enquiries closing on 5 August 2026. There was one lot. Evaluation was weighted 70% on price and 30% on quality. Electronic submission was permitted.

This award shows Hull City Council buys defined, local footpath improvement works through an open, below-threshold competition. A credible competitor when similar West Carr work returns to market would need practical civil engineering and footpath construction capability, with the capacity to complete a focused works package within a short delivery period. The award to an SME indicates that a smaller supplier was able to win this requirement; suppliers need not assume that only a large contractor can compete. Price carried greater weight than quality, so competitive costing matters, while quality still formed a substantial part of evaluation. Experience planning and delivering public-realm footpath improvements in an urban area would be directly relevant to this buyer’s requirement.
