## Summary

Leicestershire County Council has initiated a procurement process for the project titled "A511 MRN - Stats / Utilities - BT Openreach - April 2026". This contract, valued at £1,750,000 GBP excluding VAT, involves direct procurement without competition, as it falls below the threshold. As the sole supplier and asset owner under the New Works and Street Works Act, BT GROUP PLC has been awarded the contract. The contract period spans from 20 April 2026 to 1 May 2027 and pertains to civil engineering works to support the A511 Growth Corridor Programme, covering regions across the United Kingdom such as UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK. The procurement stage currently sits at the award stage, with the contract having been signed on 15 April 2026.

This procurement presents substantial business growth opportunities for companies in the civil engineering and utilities relocation sectors, particularly those experienced in large-scale infrastructure projects. Businesses that specialise in site preparation, construction works, and utilities services could find strategic value in engaging with similar projects. Although this specific tender was awarded directly to BT GROUP PLC, understanding the dynamics and requirements of such procurement processes can position companies to better compete in future tenders, particularly if they can offer innovative solutions or show readiness to collaborate on projects within the identified geographical regions.
