UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council commissioned replacement of the boardwalk on Iken Footpath 1. This is a small civil landscaping and footpath works contract, focused on replacing an existing boardwalk rather than a wider path or landscape scheme. The work is for the council and is located in Suffolk, in the Iken area. The awarded work is classified as landscaping, but the project’s practical focus is boardwalk replacement. It is a single-lot requirement, so the procurement was not divided into separate packages. The council is the buyer and Impact Landscaping (East Anglia) Limited was selected to carry out the works.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Impact Landscaping (East Anglia) Limited. Suffolk County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 8 October 2026 and runs from 8 October 2026 to 7 October 2027. Its value is £40,320 excluding VAT and £48,384 including VAT. There was one lot, covering replacement of the Iken Footpath 1 boardwalk. The published data does not set out evaluation criteria or specific eligibility requirements, so the stated outcome identifies the selected supplier but does not explain how bids were scored.

For competitors, this award shows Suffolk County Council purchases discrete boardwalk replacement works through a limited competition below the applicable threshold. A credible supplier for a similar requirement would need to demonstrate practical capability in replacing footpath boardwalks and delivering small, focused works for a local authority. Relevant experience would include working on public paths and completing construction or landscaping tasks safely and reliably. The awarded supplier is an East Anglian SME, showing that a smaller regional contractor was selected for this project; this does not establish a formal size restriction or any specific accreditation requirement. The requirement is a single, defined package, so suppliers suited to a contained boardwalk project are more directly relevant than businesses focused only on large infrastructure schemes.
