Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council commissioned footway reconstruction works on 19th Avenue and Woodcroft Avenue in Kingston upon Hull. The requirement covers civil engineering and construction work to rebuild pedestrian footways on both named avenues. It is a works contract rather than a supply or professional services opportunity, with delivery in Hull. The council is the buying organisation and public authority responsible for the procurement. The scope is focused on physical highway infrastructure and would suit contractors experienced in footway reconstruction, pavement renewal and associated civil engineering delivery. Businesses serving Hull or able to mobilise construction teams and site management there would be the most directly relevant competitors for this type of requirement when the council next needs comparable works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold open competition. One lot covered the full requirement, evaluated on 70% price and 30% quality. The tender deadline was 10 August 2026 at 11:00, with enquiries closing on 5 August 2026 at 11:00. Sawden & Sons Ltd was awarded the contract on 31 August 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The estimated tender value was £124,000 excluding VAT (£148,800 including VAT). The signed contract value is £103,111.88 excluding VAT (£123,734.26 including VAT). The active contract period runs from 31 August to 2 October 2026.

This award shows Hull City Council buys focused footway reconstruction and civil engineering works through a straightforward below-threshold open competition, with price carrying greater weight than quality. A competing contractor would need practical capability in reconstructing pedestrian footways, managing civil engineering sites and delivering works across named residential streets in Kingston upon Hull. Credibility would come from demonstrating sound construction planning, competent site supervision, reliable mobilisation and the ability to complete a defined highway works package efficiently. Suppliers that can present a competitive price while explaining a clear, deliverable approach to quality are well aligned with the buyer’s evaluation balance. The awarded supplier is an SME, indicating that this scale and route can suit smaller established civil engineering contractors as well as larger firms.
