Summary of the contracting process

Wigan Council is procuring carriageway resurfacing works across the Wigan borough for its 2026/27 programme. The work is categorised as construction and concerns the resurfacing of roads; the delivery area is Wigan borough. This is a single works package rather than a set of separately described lots. The council is the buying organisation. The stated requirement is focused on carriageways, so it is relevant to road construction and highway maintenance contractors able to undertake resurfacing work in the borough.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The enquiry deadline was 14 October 2026 at 17:00, and the tender submission deadline was 21 October 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is 2 November 2026 to 12 March 2027. The estimated value is £572,100 excluding VAT (£686,520 including VAT). The procurement is one lot. Offers are evaluated on quality and social value, weighted at 40%, and price, weighted at 60%. Electronic submission was permitted through the Chest procurement portal, and an electronic auction was included in the process.

The opportunity is suited to small and medium-sized businesses, as well as larger highway contractors with the resources to deliver road resurfacing across Wigan borough. Suppliers with practical carriageway construction and resurfacing expertise, suitable plant and crews, and the capacity to complete works within a defined programme are well placed to compete. Bidders should be able to demonstrate the quality of their proposed delivery and explain the social value they would provide, since these account for a substantial part of the assessment alongside price. The works may suit contractors experienced in local-authority highway maintenance and able to manage delivery across multiple road locations. The requirement is a short-term programme of physical works rather than a supply-only contract.
