Summary of the contracting process

Via East Midlands Limited is procuring civil engineering and construction materials for use within its framework across the East Midlands. The requirement is divided into seven supply areas: general build materials, bagged materials, drainage products, bulk kerbs, kerb drainage, kerbs supplied in small loads, and timber. This is a goods procurement, primarily covering building materials (CPV 44111000), with timber also classified under CPV 03419000. The buyer is a public undertaking responsible for arranging these supplies for its civil engineering activities. Delivery is within the East Midlands. The framework is intended to appoint up to three suppliers per lot, allowing several businesses to provide materials within each category.

The procurement is complete and was run as an above-threshold open procedure. It was evaluated on total price, weighted at 95%, and quality requirements, weighted at 5%. Awards were made on 28 July 2026: General Build Materials to Travis Perkins Trading Company, CAE Engineering & Architecture and CKK Civil Engineering for £168,606 excluding VAT; Bagged Material to Instarmac Group, Travis Perkins and CAE for £73,127.40; Drainage to Travis Perkins, CAE and CKK for £99,443.40; Bulk Kerbs to Travis Perkins, Marshalls and CAE for £64,445.50; Kerb Drainage to Travis Perkins, CAE and Marshalls for £61,433.18; Kerb Small Loads to Marshalls, Travis Perkins and CAE for £7,358.50; and Timber to CAE, Travis Perkins and CKK for £25,031. The framework runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028, with two possible 12-month extensions. The tender deadline was 8 July 2026 and the planned signature dates were 17 or 21 August 2026, depending on the lot.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from Via East Midlands for a broad, multi-category range of civil engineering materials, supplied through a framework rather than a single-product purchase. Relevant competitors include large merchants, specialist manufacturers and SMEs: the appointed suppliers show that businesses can compete through general construction-material distribution, bagged-product supply, drainage expertise, kerb manufacture or supply, small-load logistics, and timber provision. The buyer marked every lot as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, although the successful field included both SME and large suppliers. Competition was substantial, with three or four bids received for each lot and two SME bids reaching the final stage in every lot. A credible future supplier would therefore need dependable sourcing, product quality, competitive pricing and the operational capacity to serve East Midlands civil engineering requirements across its chosen categories.
