UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council procured construction work under the requirement titled “SD Prep 2026”. The recorded scope identifies construction work, but gives no further description of the tasks or their purpose. The work was for delivery in Herefordshire, England. The procurement was arranged as one lot and awarded to Tarmac Trading Limited. This is a council works requirement, so it is most relevant to construction contractors able to undertake public-sector works in Herefordshire. The available description does not identify a particular construction trade, asset or site, so the opportunity should not be assumed to concern a specific type of project beyond construction work.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Herefordshire Council used a selective route, making an award under a framework agreement; the call-off was not competitive. The single lot was awarded to Tarmac Trading Limited. The contract value is £436,921.86 excluding VAT (£524,306.23 including VAT). The award date is not recorded. The contract period ran from 15 June 2026 to 2 September 2026. The tender description says the contract commencement was 15 June 2026 and that it was formally executed on 22 July 2026; the contract data separately records 15 June as the signing date. This was a below-threshold award. No evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award shows that Herefordshire Council bought construction work through a framework route, using a non-competitive call-off, and selected Tarmac Trading Limited for a single-lot requirement. For a supplier seeking to compete when this buyer next needs comparable construction work, relevant credibility would include the ability to deliver council works in Herefordshire and to qualify for an applicable framework. Tarmac is identified as a large supplier, indicating that a large contractor was selected for this requirement; this does not establish a minimum company size or capacity threshold. The published scope does not distinguish particular trades, technical standards, accreditations or delivery capabilities, so firms should not infer those requirements from this award alone. The commercial reference is a short-duration, several-hundred-thousand-pound works contract.
