Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council procured highway construction and maintenance works across Devon. The framework covers carriageway resurfacing, reconstruction, patching, recycling of pavement materials, carriageway lining and high-friction surfacing. It is divided into three work areas: resurfacing, reconstruction, patching and ex-situ pavement recycling; hand patching, high-friction surfacing, carriageway lining and patching existing high-friction surfacing; and in-situ pavement recycling with associated works. The work is classified as construction work and is delivered in Devon. It is intended to support the Council’s road network programmes, including schemes requiring completed design and client programmes, as well as schemes where the design solution remains incomplete. The framework can allocate individual work orders to participating suppliers within each relevant work area.

This procurement has been awarded and contracts have been signed. It used an open procedure for a closed framework agreement, with work orders awarded with or without reopening competition. Lot 1 was awarded on 14 August 2026 to Taylor Woodrow Infrastructure, Tarmac Trading, Cormac Contracting, Kennford Tarmacadam, and E. and J. W. Glendinning, at £48,000,000 excluding VAT (£57,600,000 including VAT). Lot 2 was awarded to WJ South West and Quality Marking Services at £3,000,000 excluding VAT (£3,600,000 including VAT). Lot 3 was awarded to Holcim UK, Colas and Connor Construction (South West) at £3,000,000 excluding VAT (£3,600,000 including VAT). All three contracts were signed on 26 August 2026 and run from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030. Evaluation weighted quality at 40% and price at 60%.

This award shows sustained demand from Devon County Council for road resurfacing, pavement reconstruction, patching, pavement recycling, high-friction surfacing and road marking. Credible competitors would need practical highway construction capability across one or more of these activities, with the plant, materials, specialist teams and delivery capacity to undertake multiple work orders. The framework’s arrangements favour suppliers able to demonstrate both competitive pricing and reliable availability. For schemes with completed design, suppliers need to price bills of quantities, confirm availability within the client programme and deliver the specified works. For incomplete designs, they need capacity and availability for seasonal programmes, contribute to the developing solution, identify exceptional items and respond to changing operational requirements. Geographic coverage, mobilisation, traffic-management efficiency and the ability to maintain safe road access are also relevant strengths.
