Summary of the contracting process

South Kesteven District Council procured works to resurface Level 4 of the Wharf Road car park. The requirement is to remove and replace deteriorated asphalt, addressing cracking and poor condition so the car park can continue serving residents and the public and comply with lease terms. This is a civil engineering and asphalt surfacing project, including car park construction works (CPV 45213312). The work is located at the Wharf Road car park in the South Kesteven District, with the council based in Grantham. Welland Procurement managed the procurement on the council’s behalf. The requirement is classified as works and concerns a single package covering the full resurfacing project rather than separate service or supply elements.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. One lot was evaluated using quality at 40% and price at 60%, with electronic submissions allowed. The enquiry deadline was 30 March 2026 at 12:00 and the tender deadline was 7 April 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to RIO ASPHALT & PAVING CO. LIMITED and signed on 28 May 2026. The contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027. Its gross value is £300,000. The tender documentation described an anticipated works period from 1 June to 1 October 2026, while the signed contract records the longer contractual period. The award covers the single car park resurfacing lot.

This opportunity demonstrates demand from South Kesteven District Council for specialist asphalt and car park resurfacing capability. Suppliers well placed for comparable future requirements would have practical experience of replacing deteriorated asphalt surfaces, managing cracking and poor-condition areas, and delivering works in a public car park that must remain suitable for residents and other users. The council’s stated evaluation balance shows that a credible offer needs both competitive pricing and a clear quality proposition. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that a specialist regional surfacing contractor could be a realistic competitor. Relevant firms should be able to plan and execute civil engineering works and demonstrate reliable delivery against lease, public-use and surface-quality requirements.
