Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council bought a single-supplier framework for heavy building materials used in housing maintenance across the council’s boundaries in Nottingham. The supply covers aggregates, roof tiles, bricks and blocks, cement, paving slabs, underground drainage, plaster and rendering, and associated accessories and materials. This is a goods contract for construction and maintenance suppliers, including merchants able to provide a broad range of building materials for council housing work. Delivery is within Nottingham City Council’s area.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Huws Gray Limited. The council used an open procedure to establish a closed, single-supplier framework, with call-offs made by direct award without reopening competition. The award date was 23 June 2026; the contract was signed on 26 August 2026 and runs from 27 August 2026 to 26 August 2030. Its value is £1,254,167 excluding VAT (£1,505,000 including VAT). There was one lot. Price accounted for 70% of evaluation and quality for 30%. The contract period given for the lot was 15 July 2026 to 14 July 2030.

For suppliers seeking to compete when Nottingham City Council next buys materials for housing maintenance, this award shows demand for a broad, coordinated supply covering aggregates, roofing, masonry, cement, paving, drainage, plastering and related accessories. A credible competitor would need dependable sourcing across these product lines and the ability to serve housing maintenance work throughout Nottingham City Council’s area. The requirement was awarded through a single-supplier framework with direct-award call-offs, so suppliers should be prepared to support ordering without a further competition at call-off stage. The evaluation gave most weight to price, while quality remained material; suppliers would therefore need competitive pricing alongside evidence that their product range and supply service meet the council’s quality requirements. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable to compete.
