Summary of the contracting process

Wiltshire Council sought contractors for highway machine-surfacing works across Wiltshire, on roads and other council land. The work includes machine surfacing and associated civil engineering, road markings, cats’ eyes, loop cutting and any traffic management needed for those activities. This is a highways construction and road-surfacing contract (CPV 45233000). The requirement covers the delivery of the works across the council’s area; the notice does not identify a more specific delivery site.

The process reached tender: Wiltshire Council invited offers through an open procedure. The enquiry deadline was 5 November 2026 at 12:00, and the submission deadline was 19 November 2026 at 12:00. The expected award decision date was 10 February 2027. The initial contract term runs from 1 June 2027 to 31 May 2033, with two possible two-year extensions, giving a maximum end date of 31 May 2037. The estimated value is £200 million excluding VAT (£240 million including VAT). There is one lot. Evaluation is weighted 45% on price, 30% on quality, 15% on sustainability and 10% on social value.

This requirement is suited to road-surfacing and highways contractors able to deliver machine surfacing alongside associated civil engineering, road-marking, cats’ eyes, loop-cutting and traffic-management works. Suppliers need the operational capacity to undertake a broad programme across Wiltshire’s highways and other council land over a long-term contract, including coordinating the different work elements. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises are identified as suitable to compete. Bids are assessed on quality as well as price, with sustainability and social value also carrying explicit weight, so bidders should be able to demonstrate credible approaches in those areas alongside a competitive financial offer. The contract provides for NEC4 Z clauses.
