Summary of the contracting process

Staffordshire County Council procured works for the supply and installation of new fences, repair of existing fences and associated fencing services. The requirement covers fencing, railing and safety equipment installation work. It is a call-off from the council’s IA3601 framework for these services, supporting the council’s ongoing estate, land and infrastructure maintenance needs. The contracting authority is Staffordshire County Council, based in Stafford. The selected supplier, Dawkes & Co Limited, is also based in Stafford and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The work relates to Staffordshire County Council’s service area, with the award classified as works rather than goods or general services.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective, below-threshold call-off under an existing framework. Competition was not reopened for this call-off. One lot was completed, and Dawkes & Co Limited received the award. The contract was signed on 12 June 2026 and runs from 13 July 2026 to 28 August 2026. Its value is £101,424.40 excluding VAT, or £121,709.28 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The requirement was described as a June 2026 call-off from the IA3601 framework for supplying and installing new fences, repairing existing fences and providing associated services. The published outcome identifies the supplier and contract value but does not set out separate award weightings or scoring criteria.

The award shows that Staffordshire County Council uses a framework call-off route for relatively short, defined packages of fencing works, rather than necessarily running a new open competition for each requirement. A credible competitor for similar council work would need practical capability in installing new fencing, repairing existing fencing, and delivering associated railing and safety-equipment installation services. Relevant experience should cover site-based works, fault diagnosis, repairs and safe installation across the council’s operating area. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably equipped specialist business rather than only a large national contractor. Firms seeking comparable framework work would need the capacity to mobilise promptly, manage varied fencing tasks and meet public-sector contractual standards.
