Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council commissioned resurfacing works in Herefordshire. The requirement is a 2026 carriageway resurfacing work order, covering construction work delivered in the county. The procurement is for road surfacing rather than general construction: suppliers with the ability to undertake highway resurfacing are the relevant market. The council is the buying organisation. The award relates to one lot and identifies Tarmac Trading Limited as the supplier selected for the works.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Herefordshire Council used a selective route to award work under an existing framework; this was a below-threshold award and the call-off was not competitive. Tarmac Trading Limited was awarded the contract. Its value is £547,444.78 excluding VAT, or £656,933.74 including VAT. The contract period runs from 15 June 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement description says the contract was formally executed on 22 July 2026, while the contract data records a signature date of 15 June 2026; the stated commencement date is 15 June 2026. The award covers a single lot. No award evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award shows Herefordshire Council’s demand for carriageway resurfacing through a framework call-off, with a substantial single work order delivered within Herefordshire. Suppliers seeking to compete for similar work for this buyer would need to demonstrate practical highway resurfacing capability, sufficient plant, workforce and materials supply to deliver a concentrated programme, and experience managing roadworks safely in a local-authority setting. The selected supplier is a large construction materials and surfacing business, indicating the scale and delivery capacity represented in this award. A credible competitor would also need access to the relevant framework route, since the council used an award under a framework rather than an open standalone competition. The requirement is specifically road resurfacing; broader construction capability alone would not establish fit.
