Summary of the contracting process

Plymouth Community Homes Limited commissioned specialist surfacing works at Langdale Gardens in Plymouth. The work was classified as resurfacing and is a construction project rather than a supply or general maintenance contract. The award records the work as being delivered in the Plymouth area. The requirement is specific to Langdale Gardens, so surfacing contractors with experience of carrying out comparable site works for housing providers are the closest fit. Devon Tarmasters (SW) Limited was selected to carry out the works.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Plymouth Community Homes used a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed and awarded to Devon Tarmasters (SW) Limited. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026 and ran from 1 September to 12 October 2026. The recorded contract value is £31,786.67 excluding VAT, or £38,144 including VAT. The award is for the Langdale Gardens resurfacing works; the published award data does not set out separate evaluation criteria or a scoring basis.

For a future requirement of this kind from Plymouth Community Homes, a credible competitor would need to deliver specialist surfacing and resurfacing works, with the operational ability to complete a defined housing-site project in Plymouth. The selected supplier, Devon Tarmasters (SW) Limited, is a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that a smaller specialist contractor was capable of winning this requirement. The limited-competition route is also relevant to suppliers considering how the buyer procures comparable work. A business with relevant surfacing expertise, suitable crews and equipment, and experience working on residential sites would be well placed to compete when a comparable requirement arises. The award demonstrates demand for focused surfacing works, rather than a broad construction or property-maintenance service.
