Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council is procuring earthmoving and excavation works at Roundhay Park in Leeds, covering the installation of earth mounding around the boundaries of Soldiers and Connaught Fields. The works are intended to protect the historic landscape from damage, improve public safety and maintain the character and visual amenity of the conservation area. The mounding will use materials appropriate to the park’s naturalistic and historic setting. It will also help prevent unauthorised access and reduce anti-social activity. This is a works requirement for a single package, rather than a supply-only or consultancy opportunity, and is relevant to contractors able to undertake earthworks in a public park and sensitive historic environment.

The procurement has reached tender: Leeds City Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Tenders were to be submitted electronically through the Jaggaer E-Tendering Portal by 30 September 2026 at 12:00 noon. The contract period is 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. The estimated value is £50,000 excluding VAT and £60,000 including VAT. Tenderers must submit both price and quality proposals, including method statements. Quality submissions are assessed first against a minimum quality threshold; submissions below it are disqualified. Price is then assessed only for qualifying tenders, with the contract awarded to the lowest-priced tender that meets the required quality standards.

This opportunity suits earthmoving, excavation and groundworks contractors with practical experience of forming earth mounds and working safely in public parks. Relevant suppliers will need to manage works around the boundaries of existing sports or open-field areas while protecting a historic landscape and conservation-area setting. The requirement favours businesses able to select and place materials that fit the park’s naturalistic and historic character, and to deliver measures that improve safety, restrict unauthorised access and help reduce anti-social activity. Contractors should be able to provide clear method statements addressing how the works will be carried out and demonstrate that their proposed approach meets the buyer’s minimum quality standard before price is considered.
