UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Somerset Council commissioned building works to replace existing defective rainwater goods. The requirement covers the removal and replacement of rainwater drainage components, with the associated work classified as drainage works (CPV 45232452). It is a practical repair and maintenance requirement rather than a supply-only purchase, requiring a contractor able to carry out work on an existing public-sector property or estate. The buying organisation is Somerset Council, based at County Hall in Taunton. The selected supplier, D R Jones Yeovil Ltd, is a Yeovil-based small and medium-sized enterprise. The work is for the council’s estate in Somerset, with the supplier located locally in the county.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold direct award without competition. D R Jones Yeovil Ltd was selected as the contractor for the single requirement. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 26 October 2026 to 30 October 2026, giving a five-day delivery period. Its value is £35,000 excluding VAT and £42,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement used a direct procedure rather than an open tender, with the published route described as below threshold and without competition. The procurement information does not set out a competitive evaluation basis because the contract was awarded directly.

This procurement shows Somerset Council’s demand for contractors able to diagnose and replace defective rainwater goods across its estate, including associated drainage works. A credible future competitor would need practical building-maintenance and rainwater drainage capability, suitable staff and equipment for work on existing properties, and the capacity to complete a focused repair project within a short site-delivery window. Local knowledge of Somerset properties and the ability to mobilise from the county could be commercially useful, as the selected supplier is based in Yeovil. The requirement is relevant to small and medium-sized building contractors, roofing and rainwater specialists, and drainage businesses that can deliver replacement works as a complete service.
