Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council procured construction and minor civil engineering works to rebuild two sections of a retaining wall beside the A382, south-east of Moretonhampstead. The Pepperdon Retaining Wall project includes repairs to the bases of mixed masonry sections damaged by scour, repointing, vegetation clearance including small trees and shrubs, and substantial excavation to accommodate new concrete sections. The work is delivered in Devon, alongside the A382 near Moretonhampstead. It is a council infrastructure and highway-related requirement, suited to contractors with practical experience in retaining-wall reconstruction, masonry repair, concrete construction, excavation, vegetation clearance and working safely beside an operational road. The buyer is Devon County Council, a sub-central public authority, and the requirement was procured through its Minor Engineering Works Framework.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Marine & Civil Solutions Limited. It used a competitive quotation procedure under Devon County Council’s Minor Engineering Works Framework 2026–30, through the framework’s second lot; the route was a selective, below-threshold award under a framework. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and runs from 20 July to 28 August 2026. Its value is £73,624.15 excluding VAT, or £88,348.98 including VAT. The award covers the retaining-wall works described for the A382 site near Moretonhampstead. Suppliers were required to submit a signed Work Order Form and prices, rates or percentages for rogue items in the Bill of Quantities, without unauthorised amendments. Evaluation was through the competitive quotation process.

This award shows a defined requirement for small-scale highway and retaining-wall engineering delivered through Devon County Council’s Minor Engineering Works Framework. A credible competitor for similar work would need to manage structural masonry reconstruction, scour-related repairs, repointing, reinforced or new concrete sections, excavation and vegetation clearance as one coordinated site package. Experience working beside a public road, controlling access and protecting highway users would be important, as would the operational capacity to plan several trades and activities within a short work order. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist smaller contractor rather than only a major civil engineering business. Familiarity with framework quotation procedures, work-order forms and detailed bills of quantities would also support effective participation when comparable requirements return.
