Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westmorland and Furness Council procured repair works to the Hollins Lane culvert in the North West. The scope covers masonry repairs, excavation through the existing road construction, removal of defective deck slabs, and local rebuilding of the masonry abutments and central pier. The slabs are to be replaced or reinstated, including with cast in-situ reinforced concrete slabs, for which the design has already been progressed. This is a civil construction project focused on restoring the culvert structure and its deck. The work is relevant to contractors undertaking masonry and structural concrete repairs, culvert works, and associated road excavation and reinstatement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Metcalfe Plant Hire Limited on 30 September 2026. The award value is £49,695.95; the original estimated procurement value was £40,000. The contract period runs from 5 to 20 October 2026. The council used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 18 September 2026 at 12:00. The requirement is presented as a single package, with no separate lots described. The stated evaluation criteria are not provided in the process information. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable for the opportunity.

The award shows that Westmorland and Furness Council buys small-scale, targeted culvert repair work, delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for this requirement would need practical capability in masonry repairs and rebuilding, reinforced-concrete slab replacement, and excavation and reinstatement within an existing road. The design for the replacement slabs had already been progressed, so delivery capability in carrying out the specified works is central to this kind of contract. The awarded supplier is identified as an SME, and the opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. These details indicate a focused civil works package rather than a large infrastructure scheme.
