Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by Blackburn With Darwen Borough Council involves a project titled "Footway Preventative Treatment Works 2025-26," focused on capital footway improvements. This project is classified under the works category, specifically footpath construction, and is set to take place in Blackburn, United Kingdom, within the summer period of 2026. The procurement stage is complete, having been finalised on 8th April 2026, with the contract awarded to Road Maintenance Services Limited. This project was part of a direct procurement method, titled as "Below threshold - without competition," governed by UK legal regulations under the 2023/54 clause. The contract will commence on 1st June 2026 and conclude by 31st August 2026, with an anticipated gross value of £72,000.

This contract creates significant opportunities for businesses in the road and footpath construction sector, particularly those capable of delivering specialised maintenance work within specified timeframes. Companies like Road Maintenance Services Limited, which specialise in such services, stand to benefit from participating in similar tenders. As this procurement was completed through a direct method without open competition, organisations already possessing established relationships and credentials with local councils or those seeking to establish such connections in sub-central government projects in the UK may find this an advantageous precedent for future opportunities. The nature of this contract suggests potential growth for SMEs that are agile and have a proficient track record in executing civil works.
