Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council is procuring signage installation across its assets and estate in the Leeds geographical area. The requirement supports the Council’s Sign Production Facility by providing installation capacity for new external and internal signs. The procurement covers two areas of work: street name plates, and commercial and generic signage. Suppliers will be responsible for installing signage at Council locations in Leeds, supporting citizen-facing services and the presentation and operation of Council property. This is primarily a signage supply and installation requirement, classified as goods, with the practical work centred on fitting and maintaining new signs across the Council’s estate. It is suited to businesses able to deliver signage installation services locally or with sufficient operational coverage across Leeds.

The process has reached tender: Leeds City Council invited offers through an open procedure. The enquiry deadline was 18 August 2026 at 5:00pm, and the tender submission deadline was 2 September 2026 at 12:00 noon. The planned award decision date was 1 October 2026. The procurement is divided into two lots. Lot 1, street name plates, has an estimated value of £90,000 excluding VAT (£108,000 including VAT). Lot 2, commercial and generic signage, has an estimated value of £172,500 excluding VAT (£207,000 including VAT). Each lot is planned to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2029, with a possible further 12 months in any combination. Offers are evaluated on price and quality, with the published criterion weighted at 100%.

This opportunity suits signage manufacturers, specialist installers and contractors with the workforce, equipment and operational capacity to deliver external and internal signage across Leeds. Businesses bidding for the street name plate lot need operatives with a New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 qualification, making relevant street works competence essential for that work. Experience of installing street name plates, commercial signs or generic signage would be directly relevant, depending on the lot pursued. Suppliers should be able to coordinate installation across a public-sector estate, work safely at varied Council locations and provide consistent installation quality for citizen-facing assets. Firms with complementary production and installation capability may be well placed, particularly where they can support the Council’s dedicated signage facility with reliable delivery capacity.
