## Summary

Hull City Council is initiating a public procurement process for the supply of highways materials and rock salt, currently in the planning stage. This pre-market engagement aims to prepare suppliers for a future framework valued at approximately £590,000 per year, with a total estimated value of £1,774,000 for the contract period. Based in Hull, United Kingdom local region UKE11, the council seeks innovative and efficient supply solutions within the goods category. Interested suppliers should note the engagement milestone scheduled for 23 March 2026 and the subsequent future notice date on 20 April 2026, as these will be crucial for planning their involvement.

This tender presents a substantial business growth opportunity, especially for suppliers of tarmac, rock salt, and concrete, which are the main materials outlined in the engagement notice. The prospect of a framework agreement with the Hull City Council enables business operators to strengthen their presence in the local market by providing essential materials for public works. Companies aiming to expand in sectors related to infrastructure and municipal supplies could greatly benefit from participating in this pre-market engagement, as it offers insights and networking opportunities that can be leveraged when the formal procurement process commences.

## Notice

Hull City Council is inviting suppliers to take part in a Pre-Market Engagement (PME) opportunity that will help shape the future procurement of Highways Materials and Rock Salt. By participating, suppliers can gain early insight into a framework valued at approximately PS590,000 per year and contribute ideas that support service improvements, innovation and efficiency across the sector. While the PME is not a competition and does not affect future tender positioning, it offers suppliers a valuable opportunity to engage directly with the Authority, understand forthcoming Lots, and prepare for a significant upcoming procurement.
