Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council had intended to procure specialist surface treatments from suitable contractor or contractors. The work covers highway and road surface treatments, including various surface works and related repairs or treatments to roads. It is categorised as works rather than goods or services. The stated delivery country is the United Kingdom, with the requirement associated with the council’s highway responsibilities. The procurement was originally described as a standalone requirement, but the council has since confirmed that it is no longer pursuing it separately. The requirement has instead been met through an existing framework route, so this planned procurement does not represent a new contract for surface-treatment businesses to pursue.

This process is at the planning stage and has been marked as planned, but the planned standalone procurement has been superseded. The council says the requirement was fulfilled through a PCR15 framework call-off. The earlier plan indicated a total estimated value of £2,000,000 excluding VAT, or £2,400,000 including VAT, for one lot. The indicative contract period was 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2030. The buyer had expected to seek a suitable contractor or contractors for the specialist surface-treatment work. No invitation to tender or response deadline forms part of this process, and the original route should not be treated as an upcoming open competition.

The requirement would have suited contractors specialising in highway and road surface treatments, particularly businesses able to deliver varied surface works for a public-sector highways client. Firms with relevant experience in specialist road treatment, highway maintenance and managing delivery across a substantial multi-year works requirement would have been the natural market participants. However, the council has said that the requirement has already been met through an existing framework call-off. Businesses that are not already appointed to, or able to access work through, the relevant framework should therefore treat this record as background market intelligence rather than a procurement to prepare a bid for. The record sets out no specific accreditation, staffing, subcontracting or technical qualification requirements.
