## Summary

Leicestershire County Council has issued a tender for the construction and testing of boreholes at two locations: Croft Highways Depot and Mountsorrel Highways Depot in Leicestershire. This open procurement process, classified under construction work, is currently in the tender stage, with submissions due by 28th September 2018. The contract is valued at £75,000 and is aimed at providing a sufficient yield of water for non-potable uses, specifically for gulley cleaning. The work is expected to commence on 26th November 2018 and conclude by 25th November 2019.

This tender represents a lucrative opportunity for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in construction and water resource management. Businesses specialising in borehole drilling, civil engineering, and environmental services would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging in this project could help such companies expand their portfolio and establish a strong relationship with a local authority, potentially leading to further contracts in the future.

## Notice
