Summary of the contracting process

Stratfield Mortimer Parish Council procured replacement fencing at the Fairground in Stratfield Mortimer. The work covered supplying and installing the fence to the Council’s agreed specification and site requirements, including all fencing materials, posts, fixings, labour and equipment. This is a small fencing installation and construction works requirement, rather than a supply-only purchase. The site is the Fairground in Stratfield Mortimer, Berkshire. The contract was awarded to RC Saunders Limited, a Reading-based supplier. The requirement was organised as a single lot, covering the fence replacement as one package.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to RC Saunders Limited. The contract was signed on 31 October 2025 and runs from 31 October 2025 to 31 March 2026. Its value is £32,074.90 excluding VAT (£38,489.88 including VAT). The procurement was below the applicable threshold, with the precise procedure not identified in the available process details. The opportunity was a single-lot contract. The published information describes installation to the Council’s agreed specification and site requirements but does not set out a separate evaluation method or detailed selection requirements.

This award shows a parish council buying a complete fencing replacement package for a public fairground: materials, posts, fixings, labour, equipment and installation under one contract. Suppliers best placed to compete when this requirement returns will be able to manage the work as an integrated package, source and deliver suitable fencing components, and complete installation to a client’s specification and site requirements. Practical capability in fencing installation and small construction works is directly relevant; the awarded supplier is an SME, demonstrating that a smaller contractor can deliver this scale of work. Credible competitors should be able to organise the necessary equipment and labour for a site-based job and coordinate the materials and installation together. The requirement is specific to fencing works at Stratfield Mortimer Parish Council’s Fairground.
