UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council commissioned external safeguarding improvements in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The works comprised new steel fencing and gates, a new dwarf wall and asphalt footpaths. This is a small construction project focused on improving external safeguarding; the listed works are the physical scope of the requirement. The council is the buyer, and the contract was delivered in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Construction work is the relevant category for suppliers assessing whether their business matches this requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Geo Houlton & Sons Ltd. The council used limited competition below the applicable threshold. The contract was signed on 18 June 2026 and ran from 20 July to 17 August 2026. Its value was £40,420.61 excluding VAT (£48,504.73 including VAT). The procurement was a single lot covering the fencing, gates, dwarf wall and asphalt footpaths. The published award information does not set out evaluation criteria, so the award basis cannot be described further.

This award shows East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s demand for practical external safeguarding and associated construction works, delivered through a below-threshold limited competition. A credible supplier for a similar requirement would need to deliver steel fencing and gates, dwarf wall construction and asphalt footpaths as a coordinated package, with the capacity to complete a compact, time-bound site project. Relevant experience would include working safely on public-sector sites and managing the interfaces between fencing, masonry and surfacing. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that a smaller contractor was able to deliver this scope. Suppliers with suitable civil construction capability and a track record of completing comparable external works would be best placed to compete when the council next requires this specific type of improvement.
