Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council procured highway stabilisation works at Stoke Woods near Stoke Cannon. The project covered construction of a reinforced-concrete piled and anchored retaining wall, together with associated kerbing, road lining and surfacing. It is a civil engineering and construction requirement, classified under CPV 45000000 for construction work. The council is the public-sector buyer and the work is delivered in Devon. The requirement formed part of the council’s Minor Engineering Works Framework 2026–30, under its highway and minor engineering works provision. The scope would suit contractors able to undertake structural ground and highway works as a coordinated package, including retaining structures and the associated reinstatement of the road environment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a competitive quotation procedure under Lot 5 of Devon County Council’s Minor Engineering Works Framework 2026–30. The framework work order was below the relevant threshold and used a selective procedure. Mac Plant Construction Limited was awarded the contract on 5 August 2026, with the contract signed on 4 August 2026. The contract runs from 5 August to 7 December 2026. Its value is £908,006.26 excluding VAT, or £1,089,607.51 including VAT. The award relates to one completed lot and the contract is active. The evaluation was conducted through the framework’s quotation procedure in accordance with its framework information.

This award shows that Devon County Council buys substantial, packaged highway stabilisation works through its Minor Engineering Works Framework rather than only through standalone open tenders. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in reinforced-concrete retaining walls, piled and anchored construction, ground and structural engineering, and associated highway finishing. Experience coordinating kerbing, road lining and surfacing alongside major structural works would be relevant, as would the capacity to deliver a sizeable civil engineering work order within a defined programme. Suppliers should also understand framework-based quotation procedures and be able to respond competitively to selective work orders. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that this type of requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable specialist contractor without the scale of a national major works business.
