Summary of the contracting process

Dorset Council is inviting applications for the extension of its Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for road surface treatments, which includes services such as premium surface dressing, micro asphalting, and asphalt preservation. The procurement process is at the tender stage, and it utilises an open procedure, meaning any interested suppliers can apply. Companies have until 27th September 2028 to participate in this DPS, which has been extended to align with Cabinet Office guidelines and covers the South West region of the United Kingdom. The estimated value is £12 million over the next three years, with the possibility of involving other regional councils like Bournemouth Christchurch & Poole, Devon County, Plymouth City, and Swindon Borough Councils.

This tender presents a promising opportunity for businesses specialising in road construction and maintenance services. The diverse range of services required under this DPS, such as carriageway retexturing and joint sealing, means there is potential for various companies to contribute their expertise. Businesses that are particularly well-suited are those with experience in surface work for highways and roads, which can demonstrate the capability to deliver high-quality paving and asphalting services. Additionally, the procurement process encourages participation from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), providing them a robust platform to expand their market presence within the region.
