UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

VIA East Midlands Limited procured preparatory patching and asphalt preservation works for roads. The requirement covers asphalt preservation works during the 2026 programme, delivered in accordance with the buyer’s Lot 6 Asphalt Preservation 2026/27 Project Brief and Dynamic Purchasing Information Pack. It also includes the tests and inspections specified in those materials. The work is categorised as paving and asphalting works. VIA East Midlands Limited is the buying organisation, based at Bilsthorpe Depot in Bilsthorpe, Nottinghamshire. The awarded work is to be delivered across the East Midlands. This is a works opportunity for contractors able to undertake road-surface preparation, patching and asphalt preservation, with the associated quality testing and inspection activities.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Velocity UK Limited, an SME. The award was made on 17 July 2026 through a below-threshold procurement; the published method is recorded as unknown. One lot was awarded. The contract is active and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £340,000 excluding VAT and £408,000 including VAT. The tender was evaluated as a works procurement, and the award covers the full asphalt preservation requirement associated with the single lot. The contract was signed on 17 July 2026. The buyer is VIA East Midlands Limited and the appointed supplier is Velocity UK Limited, based in Sunderland.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for road-maintenance contractors with practical capability in preparatory patching and asphalt preservation. Relevant suppliers would need to plan and carry out road-surface works across a regional programme, following a project brief and the buyer’s dynamic purchasing information requirements. Credible competitors should be able to demonstrate suitable plant, materials, trained operatives and site-management capacity for consistent delivery across multiple work locations. Experience of asphalt treatments, defect preparation and quality-controlled reinstatement would be directly relevant. The requirement also places importance on carrying out and recording tests and inspections, so suppliers should have dependable quality-assurance processes and the ability to provide the evidence required by the buyer. Velocity UK Limited’s appointment indicates that an SME can deliver this scale of work.
