UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Poringland Parish Council is procuring small highways and ground works for Poringland Community Land. The work covers a cycle crossing on The Ridings, a passing bay on Carr Lane, a car park and entrance to the allotments off Carr Lane, and internal access routes within the allotment areas. This is a civil engineering and road construction project, including parking-area construction. Delivery is in Poringland, Norfolk. The scope is confined to the listed routes and facilities; pedestrian paths around the area are described separately as a possible option. The parish council is the buyer, with Chaplin Farrant Limited acting as consultant for the procurement.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 13 October 2026 at 17:00 and a bid submission deadline of 16 October 2026 at 17:00. The planned contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 28 February 2027. The estimated value is £120,000 excluding VAT (£144,000 including VAT); the tender value was subsequently corrected because of a keying error. The procurement is divided into one lot, which is suitable for SMEs. The buyer reserves an option for pedestrian paths around the area. The award criteria are described in an attached document. Electronic submission is allowed, and additional submission details are available on request from the consultant.

This opportunity is suited to civil engineering and groundworks contractors able to deliver small-scale highway and access improvements, including a cycle crossing, passing bay, car park and allotment access routes. Firms with experience in road construction and parking-area works are directly relevant; the scope also calls for work within community land and allotment areas. The single lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to smaller contractors as well as larger firms with appropriate delivery capacity. The contract also includes a possible pedestrian-path element, which may suit suppliers able to undertake associated path construction. Offers may be submitted electronically. The notice does not set out named qualifications or accreditations as conditions of participation.
