UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool City Council commissioned a feasibility study for the reorganisation of its Newton Road Depot. The work is intended to address significant health, safety and security concerns identified at the depot. This is a professional consultancy service, rather than construction or depot operations. The study concerns the council’s site in Liverpool, and its findings are to inform how the depot might be reorganised to deal with the identified concerns.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Ridge and Partners LLP, which also signed the contract. The council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract value is £30,000 excluding VAT (£36,000 including VAT). The contract period runs from 13 October to 14 November 2026. The work was procured as a single lot. The stated purpose is to assess options for reorganising Newton Road Depot in response to the significant health, safety and security concerns identified there; no separate scoring or award criteria are recorded in the procurement details.

For suppliers competing for similar work from Liverpool City Council, this award demonstrates demand for short, focused feasibility consultancy on the reorganisation of operational premises where health, safety and security concerns need to be addressed. A credible competitor would need to show it can assess site requirements and develop practical reorganisation options that respond to those risks. Relevant experience in depot or comparable operational-site planning, and the ability to bring together safety, security and facilities considerations in a concise feasibility commission, would be commercially pertinent. The council used a below-threshold direct award without competition for this commission, so suppliers should note the route used as part of the buyer’s purchasing history; it does not establish a future route.
