Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield commissioned works to resurface the footway on Childs Road, Wakefield, improving access between properties numbered 1 and 15. This is a local highway and public-realm improvement project, involving surface work for footpaths (CPV 45233253). Delivery is in Wakefield, for the council as the public-sector buyer. The requirement concerns physical construction works rather than consultancy, routine cleaning or general highways maintenance. It would suit contractors able to plan and carry out footway resurfacing in an urban setting, manage work affecting pedestrian access and deliver a short, focused improvement scheme. The procurement was arranged as a single lot covering the Childs Road requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold tender procedure; the published method is recorded as unknown. One award was made to DSD CONSTRUCTION LIMITED, and the award is active. The award date was 22 July 2026, with the contract signed on the same date. The contract is valued at £18,479 gross, excluding any wider or separate requirements. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 7 August 2026. The tender comprised one completed lot. The selected supplier is a Carlisle-based SME. This outcome shows the council used a small, below-threshold works contract for a defined footway resurfacing project, with the requirement evaluated through the procurement route recorded for this tender.

This award is relevant to small and medium-sized civil engineering, highways and public-realm contractors with practical experience in footway resurfacing. A credible competitor for this buyer would need to demonstrate the ability to prepare and resurface pedestrian routes, maintain safe access during works and complete a tightly defined scheme within a short delivery window. Local-authority experience, reliable site supervision, competent operatives and suitable surfacing plant would strengthen a future response, although the published outcome does not identify specific accreditations or technical qualifications. DSD CONSTRUCTION LIMITED’s selection shows that an SME can win this type of below-threshold Wakefield works requirement. Firms monitoring the council’s highways pipeline can use this project to benchmark the scale and delivery model of comparable footway improvements.
