Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council procured construction materials for works within Nottingham: aggregates under one lot and asphalts under another. The requirement covers the supply of these materials rather than construction or installation services. Both lots are classified as construction materials (CPV 44110000), with delivery within Nottingham City Council’s boundaries. The council established a framework with three contractors appointed to each lot. Aggregates suppliers are CEMEX UK Operations Limited, Tarmac Trading Limited and Huws Gray Limited. Asphalt suppliers are Dragon Asphalt Ltd, CEMEX UK Operations Limited and Tarmac Trading Limited. This is a goods procurement for businesses able to supply construction materials to public works in Nottingham and operate within the council’s framework arrangements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an above-threshold open procedure. It used a closed framework, with call-offs made by direct award using the rates in a pricing schedule and awarded by basket of rates. The award date was 20 February 2026, with contracts signed on 16 July 2026. Lot 1, aggregates, was awarded for £750,000 excluding VAT (£900,000 including VAT) to CEMEX UK Operations Limited, Tarmac Trading Limited and Huws Gray Limited. Lot 2, asphalts, was awarded for £1,250,000 excluding VAT (£1,500,000 including VAT) to Dragon Asphalt Ltd, CEMEX UK Operations Limited and Tarmac Trading Limited. Both contracts run from 3 August 2026 to 2 August 2030. Evaluation weighted price at 70%, quality at 20% and social value at 10%.

This procurement shows established demand from Nottingham City Council for both aggregates and asphalts, with separate supply capability relevant to each product area. A credible future competitor would need experience and qualifications in supplying construction materials, reliable capacity to fulfil orders for council works, and the operational reach to deliver within Nottingham. The framework model favours suppliers able to provide consistent, clearly priced rates that can support direct-award call-offs by basket of rates. Performance expectations include monitoring order acceptance, reportable health and safety incidents, and environmental incidents, with measures reviewed every three months. The buyer marked both lots as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, while the awarded supplier group included a smaller asphalt business alongside large national suppliers.
