Summary of the contracting process

Stroud District Council procured sheet-piling works for the M5 crossing project in Stroud. The scope covered three phases: installing sheet piles through earth and engineered dams upstream and downstream of the River Frome to form a temporary dam; installing permanent sheet piles on both sides of the M5, tying them into the concrete separating wall, existing scour piles and riverbank, and fitting a capping beam; then removing the temporary-dam piles and taking them off site. This is civil engineering construction for a water-related project (CPV 45240000). The delivery location is in the Stroud district, Gloucestershire.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Suttle Project Limited. The award is active, and the contract is active and signed. The contract was signed on 29 July 2026 and runs from 29 July 2026 to 31 December 2027. Its value is £499,521 excluding VAT (£599,425.20 including VAT). The tender estimate was £350,000 excluding VAT (£420,000 including VAT). This was a below-threshold open competition under the Procurement Act 2023. The single lot was suitable for SMEs. Bids were assessed on quality, including social value, and cost; the stated procurement documents set out the detailed criteria. An extension is allowed only in the event of project delay, with the contract duration otherwise remaining the same.

For firms competing for similar work for Stroud District Council, this award demonstrates demand for specialist sheet-piling capability on a constrained highway and river project. A credible supplier would need to plan and deliver temporary and permanent piling, work alongside existing structures and riverbanks, install capping beams, and safely remove temporary works and clear them from site. The three-stage scope calls for coordinated sequencing and the ability to manage both enabling and remedial tasks as well as the permanent installation. The successful supplier was an SME, and the lot was considered suitable for SMEs, indicating that this scale of civil engineering package was not restricted to large businesses. The evaluation placed weight on both technical quality, including social value, and price, so suppliers need a deliverable method and a competitive cost case.
