Summary of the contracting process

East Devon District Council, based in Honiton, led the procurement process for the "1030b District Wide Car Park Resurfacing Works," focusing on resurfacing car parks in Exmouth and Ottery St Mary. The procurement, categorised under construction work, followed an open competition method below threshold value and was completed with an award phase on 15th January 2026. The initial phase, launched on 17th October 2025, invited tenders with submissions closing on 14th November 2025. The contract commenced on 6th January 2026, with an opportunity for an extension due to possible delays from weather conditions.

This procurement offers growth opportunities primarily for firms experienced in large-scale construction and civil engineering, particularly those adept in car park resurfacing. Large construction companies, such as Cormac Contracting Ltd, have successfully engaged, demonstrating a robust market for high-quality resurfacing operations. The competitive nature of this tender, which drew interest from 11 initial bids including seven from SMEs, suggests that both large enterprises and suitably equipped smaller firms could compete strongly for similar future projects, fostering business expansion through government contracts.

Notice Title

1030b District Wide Car Park Resurfacing Works

Notice Description

This contract is for the provision of works of resurfacing 2No. car parks as below: Foxholes Car Park is located in Exmouth (SY01234 79976) with entrance and exit access via Queen's Drive. The tarmac surfaced car park has a linear raised kerbed walkway running north to south with a vehicle ramp to access the east portion of the car park. A newly installed public toilet resides on the western face of the car park. Two pedestrian ramps provide access from the north west corner of the car park to elevated chalets buildings. The car park's surfacing has multiple potholes and large areas of scouring which requires full resurfacing, last undertaken in 2004. There have also been utility trench excavations with subsequent resurfacing leading to separation and further deterioration. The existing levels fall from north to south, feeding to 2No. drainage gullies on the eastern portion, 1No. by the pedestrian walkway and the entrance bellmouth in the western portion of the car park. Land of Canaan (Canaan Way) Car Park is located in Ottery St Mary (SY09520 95571) with entrance and exit access via Fairmile Lane. The car park is bisected by a brick paving road providing access to both southern and northern portions. There is dense vegetation and mature trees surrounding the car park as well as 3No. vegetation islands with shrubbery and tress varying in size. The car park has prevailing fall from south to north towards two sets of linear slot drains that are heavily silted with limited function. At the northwest portion there are 4No. drainage gullies that discharge surface run off to the nearby watercourse. The surfacing has degraded throughout the years with large potholes with existing stone coming away from the surface. With an increase in standard parking bays the existing kerbing will need to be adjusted to accommodate alongside the introduction of 3No. coach bays on the southern portion of the site.
