Summary of the contracting process

Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council procured works to resurface the footpath at Carrs Wood. This is a local footpath construction and resurfacing requirement, rather than a general roads programme. The award records construction work, with delivery in the United Kingdom; the council is the buyer. The contract title identifies Carrs Wood as the work site. The requirement was organised as one lot, covering the stated resurfacing works.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Horticon Ltd. The council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026 and runs from 12 October 2026 to 11 October 2027. Its value is £32,558.34 excluding VAT (£39,070.01 including VAT). The award is active and the contract is active. The available award information identifies construction work but does not set out a more detailed evaluation basis.

The award shows Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council buying a defined footpath-resurfacing package through limited competition. A supplier competing for comparable work would need practical capability in footpath construction and resurfacing, and the capacity to deliver a council works contract over its stated delivery period. The winning supplier is an SME, demonstrating that this scale of requirement can be met by a smaller specialist contractor. Contractors with relevant resurfacing experience, suitable labour and equipment, and the ability to manage delivery at a named local site are the closest fit. The procurement provides a concrete example of the council’s demand for local pathway improvement works; its limited-competition route is also relevant to suppliers tracking how the council sources this type of work.
