Summary of the contracting process

Dorset Council is overseeing the procurement process titled "Road Surface Treatments - DPS" under the industry category of road construction works. This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) allows for continued supplier admission and flexible call-off arrangements, primarily focusing on works such as premium surface dressing, micro asphalting, and in-situ road recycling, among others. The procurement process, renewed initially in March 2018 for four years, has been amended to extend until 23 February 2029. In addition to Dorset Council, various regional authorities such as Plymouth City Council and Swindon Borough Council also have access to this DPS for their road surface treatment services. The construction-related procurement utilises a selective method and adheres to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, ensuring compliance with established legal frameworks during transition periods dictated by evolving procurement legislation.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in road construction and maintenance, particularly those with expertise in surface treatment and recycling processes. Given the scope and estimated value of £20 million over the renewed period, businesses offering these specialised services in the UK can benefit from the sustained demand driven by multiple regional authorities. Organisations that meet the exclusion and selection criteria can gain access to a wide range of contract opportunities, thus allowing businesses to expand their portfolio and geographic footprint. Companies with competencies in traffic management, construction management, and preservation techniques, such as asphalt preservation and spray injection patching, are well-suited to compete and thrive within this DPS framework.
