Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured highway construction and surface works through a mini competition for road resurfacing schemes. The programme covers A6175 Williamthorpe Road at North Wingfield; B6179 Grosvenor Road and Butterley Hill at Ripley; Leopold Street and Mark Street at Long Eaton; and Acton Close at Sandiacre. Delivery is across the East Midlands. The work is categorised as construction, foundation and surface works for highways and roads. It is a works requirement covering multiple local road schemes rather than a single construction site. The named buyer is Derbyshire County Council, based at County Hall in Matlock. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that businesses of this scale were considered capable of delivering the requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini competition under the PLACE089 Non-Strategic Road Resurfacing framework. The tender submission deadline was 11 June 2026 at 11:00. The tender estimate was £726,883.10, while the active award to Thomas Bow Limited was £1,113,377.31. The award date was 6 July 2026. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 25 September 2026. The selected supplier is Thomas Bow Limited. The process used a framework call-off mini competition, with the requirement evaluated through that competition. The award covers the listed road resurfacing schemes across Derbyshire. The contract is recorded as active, and the tender is complete.

This award demonstrates demand from Derbyshire County Council for contractors able to deliver several road resurfacing schemes across different local authorities and communities within the county. A credible competitor would need practical highway construction capability, including road foundation and surface works, and the capacity to coordinate multiple sites within one short delivery programme. Experience of resurfacing roads such as urban streets and named regional routes would be directly relevant. Suppliers should also be able to compete through the PLACE089 Non-Strategic Road Resurfacing framework’s mini competition route, rather than relying only on open-market tendering. The award to Thomas Bow Limited, identified as an SME, shows that an SME-scale road contractor can satisfy this type of requirement. The relevant commercial focus is repeatable highway delivery for Derbyshire County Council.
