Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Mid Devon District Council procured a supply-only contract for specialist building materials used by its in-house contractor. The requirement covers construction materials rather than installation, building works or labour, supporting the council’s own delivery of maintenance and construction activity. The main category is construction materials (CPV 44110000). Deliveries are for use in England. The buyer is Mid Devon District Council, based at Phoenix House in Tiverton. The arrangement is relevant to manufacturers, distributors, merchants and specialist suppliers able to provide building materials for a public sector in-house contracting operation. The procurement is categorised as goods, and the opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. Mid Devon District Council used a direct award procedure. The award was made to Nicobond International Ltd on 31 May 2026 for £150,000. The awarded contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 March 2032. The tender submission deadline was 31 May 2026 at 13:00. The published procurement period records a contract start of 8 June 2026 and an end date of 31 March 2032. Nicobond International Ltd is the sole named supplier and the award is active. Evaluation was conducted through the direct award route rather than an open competitive tender. The requirement is for supply only, with materials delivered for the council’s in-house contractor in England.

This award provides a clear indication of Mid Devon District Council’s demand for specialist building materials over a sustained operating period. A credible future competitor would need reliable access to the relevant construction-material ranges, dependable stock control and the capacity to fulfil repeat orders for an in-house contractor. Distribution capability across England, consistent product quality and responsive order handling would be important, particularly where council works depend on materials arriving when required. Suppliers should be able to manage public sector purchasing arrangements, provide clear product information and maintain continuity of supply. The requirement’s stated suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises suggests that smaller specialist merchants or distributors may be relevant where they can demonstrate the necessary range, logistics and service resilience.
