Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured highway construction works for the resurfacing of Bench Road in Buxton. The requirement was a mini-competition under the PLACE089 Non-Strategic Resurfacing framework, covering the planned road resurfacing scheme rather than general maintenance or consultancy. The work falls within construction, foundation and surface works for highways and roads. Delivery is in Buxton, Derbyshire, within England. The buying organisation is Derbyshire County Council, based in Matlock. This opportunity is therefore relevant to contractors delivering road surfacing, highway construction and associated civil engineering works, particularly those able to undertake a defined resurfacing scheme for a county council.

The procurement is complete and was awarded following a mini-competition from the PLACE089 Non-Strategic Resurfacing framework. The tender deadline was 23 June 2026 at 9:00 am. The estimated procurement value was £455,661.43 including the stated currency of GBP. Derbyshire County Council awarded the contract to Thomas Bow Limited on 27 July 2026 for £331,009.94. The awarded contract period runs from 10 August 2026 to 9 August 2027. The award is recorded as active. The procurement was for works and used a framework mini-competition route. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one road resurfacing requirement, with no division into separate lots.

This award demonstrates established demand from Derbyshire County Council for delivered road resurfacing schemes through its non-strategic resurfacing framework. A credible future supplier would need practical highway construction capability, including road preparation, foundation work and surface treatment, with the workforce, plant and traffic-management capacity to complete a defined scheme safely and to the required standard. Experience of working for public-sector highway clients and operating within framework mini-competitions would strengthen a supplier’s position. The selected supplier is identified as an SME, but the opportunity was not marked as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that businesses should assess their operational scale, financial resilience and ability to manage council highway requirements before pursuing comparable work.
