Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield procured carriageway resurfacing works on Grandstand Road. The requirement covers resurfacing the road surface, making this a civil engineering and highways works opportunity rather than a supply or professional services contract. Delivery is associated with Grandstand Road in Wakefield. The council is the public authority buying and managing the requirement. The awarded work is classified as resurfacing works. It is a single-road requirement, with the published scope focused on completing the carriageway resurfacing rather than a wider highways maintenance programme. Businesses considering comparable work for this buyer would need to operate in road construction, carriageway preparation, asphalt or bituminous surfacing, and associated site delivery. The requirement is relevant to contractors with practical highways resurfacing capability and the resources to complete a defined roadworks project.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold tender route. The contract was signed on 23 June 2026 and awarded to Derek Lewis Limited. The contract is active, runs from 22 July 2026 to 23 July 2026, and has a gross value of £59,598. The procurement has one completed lot covering the Grandstand Road resurfacing works. The award covers the resurfacing works for that lot and the contract value is stated in pounds sterling. The published outcome identifies Derek Lewis Limited as the selected supplier. The available procurement details describe the method as below threshold, but do not set out a separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis. This is therefore an awarded, short-duration highways works contract with a defined scope and modest project value.

For a supplier that did not win, this award is a useful indication that Wakefield Council buys short, defined carriageway resurfacing projects through below-threshold tendering. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need demonstrable highways construction experience, practical expertise in carriageway resurfacing, and the workforce, plant and materials supply arrangements to mobilise and complete a road surface project within a tightly defined delivery window. Evidence of safe site working, traffic management, quality control and reliable completion would help establish credibility, alongside the financial and operational capacity expected of a contractor delivering public highway works. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that this scale of requirement can suit an established specialist contractor rather than only a large national highways business.
