Summary of the contracting process

Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council is currently in the tender stage for a significant procurement titled "Supply of Highways Aggregates and Bitumen Products." This procurement process pertains to the construction and maintenance industry and aims to establish a framework agreement with one or two suppliers to provide various aggregates and bitumen products. The council is offering Lot 1 for Bituminous Products and Lot 2 for Dry Aggregates, allowing suppliers to bid on one or both lots. The procurement is being conducted via an open procedure, with the full tender documentation accessible online. The framework's estimated total value ranges between £4,000,000 to £5,000,000 annually, with a tender submission deadline of 15th December 2025 and an intended contract start date of 1st June 2026. Deliveries are expected throughout the Oldham Borough, with an emphasis on suppliers who can also facilitate local collections.

This tender presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses specialising in construction materials, particularly those offering road surfacing products and related aggregates. Suppliers capable of delivering high-quality bitumen and dry aggregates with efficient distribution capabilities within Oldham will likely find a strong demand for their services. This opportunity is well-suited to enterprises of varying sizes, including SMEs, due to the framework's provision for multiple suppliers and a clear evaluation focus on both cost and quality. Establishing a successful procurement partnership with Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council could lead to steady revenue streams and enhanced business growth in the public sector over the forthcoming years.
