Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council procured emergency groundworks and civil engineering to repair a void at Eastern Esplanade car park in Ventnor. This is a construction works requirement, focused on making good the void at the car park rather than a broader maintenance programme. The delivery location is Ventnor, on the Isle of Wight. The contract was awarded to OPEX Groundworks and Civil Engineering Ltd, a Cowes-based supplier. The work concerns a specific site and repair requirement for the council.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The council used a direct award below the procurement threshold, without competition, and the requirement was arranged as one lot. OPEX Groundworks and Civil Engineering Ltd was selected for the contract. The award was made on 27 June 2026 and the contract runs from 29 June to 27 July 2026. Its value is £56,010 excluding VAT (£67,212 including VAT).

This award shows demand from the Isle of Wight Council for urgent, site-specific groundworks and civil engineering to address a void at a public car park. Suppliers seeking to compete for comparable work for this buyer would need to demonstrate the ability to assess and repair ground failures safely, mobilise promptly and deliver construction work in a constrained public setting. Relevant experience in groundworks and civil engineering, including practical delivery of void repairs, would support credibility. The council used a direct award without competition for this below-threshold emergency requirement, so this award does not show a competitive selection process or particular scored criteria.
