UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council commissioned replacement of the Purdis Farm 3 boardwalk, a landscaping and outdoor works project. The requirement is to replace an existing boardwalk; the award identifies the project but provides no further detail about materials, design or associated works. The council is the buyer, and delivery is in Suffolk. This is a single-lot works contract, awarded to C D C Blowers Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise based in Saxmundham. The project is specific to the Purdis Farm 3 boardwalk rather than a broader landscaping programme, so it is most relevant to contractors able to undertake boardwalk replacement and related site works for a local authority.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Suffolk County Council used a below-threshold limited competition procedure. C D C Blowers Limited was awarded the contract. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 May 2027. Its value is £29,245 excluding VAT and £35,094 including VAT. There was one lot, covering the boardwalk replacement. The published award information gives no evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements, so the basis for selecting the supplier is not stated. The award confirms that the procurement resulted in an active contract; no separate award date is recorded.

This award shows that Suffolk County Council buys targeted boardwalk replacement works through limited competition for a below-threshold project. For a future requirement of this kind, a credible competitor would need to demonstrate practical experience replacing boardwalks and delivering landscaping or associated outdoor works, with the capability to complete a discrete council project. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that work of this scale can be delivered by a smaller business. Contractors based in or able to work in Suffolk may find the local delivery requirement relevant. The available procurement information does not identify particular technical standards, accreditations or specialist qualifications, so relevance is strongest for businesses whose established services include boardwalk construction or replacement.
