Summary of the contracting process

Great Yarmouth Borough Council purchased building materials for its requirements in Great Yarmouth. The procurement covers goods rather than construction, installation or professional services, with the materials supplied through Jewson’s Great Yarmouth operation. The requirement is a straightforward supply arrangement for building materials, relevant to merchants, distributors and manufacturers able to provide a broad range of construction materials to a local authority. Businesses serving public-sector estates, repairs and maintenance activity may find the buyer and purchasing need relevant. The named supplier is Stark Building UK, trading as Jewson, indicating that the requirement was fulfilled through an established building-materials merchant with a local branch presence. The council is the public-sector buyer for this procurement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Great Yarmouth Borough Council used a direct below-threshold procedure without competition. Stark Building UK, trading as Jewson, was awarded the single lot. The contract was signed on 18 June 2026 and ran from 19 June 2026 to 19 June 2026. Its net value was £25,000, with a gross value of £30,000. The award is recorded as active and the contract is also recorded as active. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so no competitive scoring basis is recorded. This outcome shows that the council bought the materials as one completed requirement from one supplier.

This procurement is commercially relevant to building-materials merchants, distributors and manufacturers that can supply local-authority customers reliably through a branch or delivery network. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need dependable access to standard construction materials, responsive order fulfilment and the operational capacity to support council repairs, maintenance or estates work. The awarded supplier’s profile shows that a large, established merchant with a local Great Yarmouth presence satisfied the requirement. Smaller firms may still be relevant if they can demonstrate comparable product availability, delivery performance and public-sector account handling. The procurement also shows that this buyer has used a simple direct purchasing route for a below-threshold materials requirement.
