Tender description
Leicester City Council (LCC) would like to seek views and engagement from the market in relation to the construction of 33 new build council homes. It is intended that homes will be built on the former site of Forest Lodge Education Centre (FLEC), which has now been demolished. The tender opportunity is likely to be run as an open tender exercise and use the NEC Option A as the form of contract. This exercise is NOT a call for competition and is purely a pre-market engagement exercise. The purpose of this PME exercise is to gauge market interest and capacity. Interested contractors should express their interest through the Microsoft Forms questionnaire link (https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/Mggy2vHwnA) and answer the questions as required. The deadline to respond to the questionnaire is 12 noon on 15 October 2026. Failure to respond to the PME questionnaire will not affect interest parties being considered for any future opportunity.

About the buyer
Leicester City Council buys as a local authority, advertising most opportunities through East Midlands Tenders, its regional supplier portal. Larger contracts appear on Find a Tender instead, where any supplier awarded a contract must also register from April 2026. Some contracts run through outside frameworks, including ESPO and the Government Commercial Agency. Suppliers apply to those bodies directly to become approved framework suppliers. A two-year procurement plan for 2026 to 2028 is published on the council's open data site. Supplier selection also weighs social value, such as local job creation and environmental impact, alongside price.
UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).
Over the past 5 years, most of Leicester City Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and software and information systems.
