UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Staffordshire County Council procured works to design, manufacture and install safety barriers across all ramp sites in its household waste recycling centre network. The requirement covers fencing, railing and safety equipment installation, with the purpose of improving safety at the council’s HWRC sites. Delivery is across Staffordshire, under a county-wide council requirement. This is a works opportunity rather than a supply-only contract: the appointed business was expected to combine design capability, manufacture or sourcing of suitable barriers, and on-site installation. The buyer is Staffordshire County Council, a sub-central public authority. The requirement was treated as a single package covering the network rather than separate site-specific procurements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Cooper Mobile Services Limited was selected on 1 May 2026, and the contract was signed on that date. The contract runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2027. Its value is £96,000 excluding VAT, or £115,200 including VAT. The award covers the complete requirement for safety-barrier works across the HWRC ramp sites. The tender was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive procedure. The contract remains active, and the awarded supplier is Cooper Mobile Services Limited, an SME based in Bilston, Wolverhampton.

This procurement shows Staffordshire County Council’s demand for a contractor able to deliver a network-wide safety installation programme across operational household waste sites. A credible future competitor would need to design barriers for ramp environments, manufacture or procure compliant fencing, railing and related safety equipment, and install it reliably across multiple locations. The work suits an SME with practical site-installation capacity, project coordination and the ability to manage access, sequencing and consistent standards across a county-wide estate. Relevant experience in waste and recycling facilities, public-sector sites, safety barriers or comparable engineered access-control works would strengthen a supplier’s position. The requirement also indicates value in combining design, fabrication and installation within one accountable service.
