Summary of the contracting process

Winscombe and Sandford Parish Council procured works to replace cemetery fencing. The requirement was for the removal and erection of replacement fencing at a cemetery, under the plain-language category of fencing installation and related construction works. The buyer is the parish council, based in Winscombe, Somerset. The procurement covered a single cemetery-fencing requirement. The published scope identifies the work as a replacement fence rather than a wider grounds-maintenance, landscaping or cemetery-management service. This is therefore relevant to fencing contractors and construction businesses able to carry out cemetery fencing works for a local authority. The successful supplier, SB Fencing Contractors Ltd, is based in Weston-super-Mare and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Winscombe and Sandford Parish Council used an open procedure, with written submissions in English. The tender submission deadline was 23 July 2026 at 12:00, and evaluation and bid opening were scheduled for 24 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to SB Fencing Contractors Ltd on 24 July 2026; it was signed on 29 July 2026. The contract period ends on 31 October 2026. Price was the stated award criterion, and alternative bids were not allowed. Six bids were recorded. The lowest valid bid was £15,750 and the highest valid bid was £44,355.81. The requirement was treated as one lot, although the lot record is marked cancelled while the award and contract are active.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible competitors would need practical fencing-installation capability, experience replacing fencing in cemetery or similarly sensitive public-facing settings, and the capacity to complete a defined works package for a parish council. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the work was accessible to a focused specialist rather than only a large national contractor. A strong competing offer would need to demonstrate reliable site working, safe installation, suitable materials and workmanship, and the ability to manage access and disruption in an operational cemetery. Because price was the stated award basis, cost control and a clear, competitive quotation would be central. Suppliers should also be comfortable submitting formal written tenders in English and delivering the specified solution without variants.
