Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process was initiated by Leeds City Council, located in the United Kingdom, specifically at Civic Hall, Calverley Street, Leeds. This process reached the award and contract stages, concluding with an active status as of 30th July 2026. The contract titled "Temple Newsam Underground Water Main Replacement" involved works for the refurbishment of water-main construction. The procurement method was direct, below threshold and executed without competition, focusing on essential infrastructure replacement due to failed water supply at Temple Newsam. The contract period spanned from 21st August 2025 to 20th September 2025, with a gross contract value of £46,200.

This tender provided a strategic opportunity for specialised firms in water infrastructure, particularly those skilled in water-main construction and refurbishment. With a procurement approach not requiring formal competition, it was well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), like MCNAIR UTILITIES LIMITED, which successfully secured the contract. The involvement in this procurement underscores the demand for niche expertise in utility infrastructure and the potential to expand business operations within the public sector by providing vital, technical construction work, such as water main replacements.
