Summary of the contracting process

Corserv Solutions Limited, on behalf of its CORMAC division, procured specialist engineering services contractors for a multi-supplier agreement. The requirement covers engineering and fabrication works at the asphalt plant and aggregate crushing plant at Castle-an-Dinas Quarry, Ludgvan, Cornwall. This is a works opportunity focused on maintaining, modifying or supporting industrial quarry-processing facilities, rather than general consultancy or routine supply. The relevant classifications are engineering and construction works (CPV 45220000) and fabrication work (CPV 45255400). The buying organisation is Corserv Solutions Limited, a public undertaking operating from Cornwall. Delivery is in Cornwall, at Castle-an-Dinas Quarry. The agreement is intended to provide engineering and fabrication support to the plant facilities through appointed suppliers.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Two suppliers were awarded the single lot: J.W. Pearce Agricultural Services Limited and Bama South West Ltd. The award date was 14 July 2026, at £800,000 excluding VAT (£960,000 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027, with a maximum extent to 31 July 2030 through three optional 12-month extensions. Evaluation weighted commercial factors at 60% and quality at 40%. There were no mandatory conditions of participation, and the lot was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The enquiry deadline was 29 June 2026 and the submission deadline, extended by amendment, was 6 July 2026.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist engineering and fabrication capability in a live quarry and asphalt-production environment. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would be able to undertake engineering works and fabrication associated with asphalt plants and aggregate crushing plants, and to operate reliably in an industrial site setting. The buyer’s evaluation gives greater weight to commercial competitiveness than quality, so a credible competitor would need a clear, costed delivery model alongside evidence of safe, dependable technical performance. The agreement structure favours businesses able to provide responsive support as an appointed engineering contractor, potentially across recurring plant requirements. The participation criteria also indicate that smaller businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises can be suitable where they can demonstrate the required technical and delivery capability.
