## Summary

The procurement process managed by Leicestershire County Council involves the Civils Materials and Hand Tools Framework, a significant undertaking valued at £3,000,000, aimed at acquiring goods for highways maintenance activities within the East Midlands region. This project falls under the goods category and primarily includes construction materials, hand tools, sand, and various access covers. The process follows an open procedure, ensuring competitive bids and transparency. As of 9th May 2025, the award stage is complete, and contracts are set to commence on 16th May 2025, ending by 15th May 2029. The framework provides opportunities for suppliers to offer their products in two distinct lots: Civils Materials and Hand Tools.

This tender provides valuable opportunities for business growth, especially for suppliers of construction materials and hand tools. With special consideration for SMEs, businesses that specialise in these categories and can deliver competitive prices and quality within agreed timescales will find it suitable for participation. Both large-scale suppliers like Cromwell Group Holdings and Huws Gray Ltd, as well as SMEs like Denham Procurement & Sourcing Solutions Limited and TW Engineering Co. Ltd, have been awarded contracts, highlighting opportunities for diverse organisations to collaborate and grow. Suppliers with experience in highways maintenance or construction materials are particularly well-suited for this framework.
