Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield commissioned carriageway resurfacing work on Orchard Drive in Ackworth. The requirement is classified as carriageway resurfacing works and falls within the works category. Delivery is in the Ackworth area of Wakefield. The council is the buying organisation and public authority responsible for the procurement. The work concerns the renewal of the road surface rather than a broader highways maintenance service, so it is most relevant to civil engineering contractors, highways contractors and specialist road surfacing businesses with the equipment and workforce to deliver carriageway resurfacing. The procurement covered one completed requirement for this location, with Derek Lewis Limited identified as the appointed supplier.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a below-threshold procedure, with the detailed procurement method recorded as unknown, and covered one lot. Derek Lewis Limited was awarded the requirement. The contract was signed on 3 July 2026, runs from 29 July 2026 to 5 August 2026, and has a gross value of £62,727. The award is active and the contract is active. Evaluation information is limited to the procurement documents and the recorded award; no separate scoring basis is stated in the process data. The result indicates a short, defined highways works package rather than a long-term service arrangement. The awarded supplier is based in Doncaster.

For a supplier that did not win, this procurement is a useful indication of Wakefield Council’s demand for focused carriageway resurfacing packages at local roads. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical highways construction capability, experience delivering road-surface renewal, suitable plant and materials, and enough operational capacity to complete a compact works package within a tightly defined delivery window. Familiarity with working for a local authority and managing traffic, public access, safety and workmanship on an occupied road would strengthen its position, where required by the specification. The appointed business is an SME, showing that this scale of council highways work can be delivered by a smaller specialist contractor rather than only a major national infrastructure firm.
