Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council procured resurfacing works for its 2026 C/U programme. The work falls within construction, specifically road-surface renewal, and was delivered in Herefordshire. The published description identifies the requirement as “Resurfacing - C/U 2026” but gives no further breakdown of road sections, surface treatments or associated works. Tarmac Trading Limited was selected to carry out the works. This is a council construction requirement rather than a supply of materials alone: the awarded scope is classified as works, with resurfacing identified as the purpose. The buyer is Herefordshire Council, and the delivery location is within its county. The procurement was arranged as a single lot.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Herefordshire Council awarded the works to Tarmac Trading Limited through a below-threshold procurement; the recorded method does not identify a more specific procedure. The contract is valued at £952,369.47 excluding VAT, or £1,142,843.36 including VAT. Its stated period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement description says the contract was formally executed on 27 August 2026, while the contract data records 1 August 2026 as the signing date. No separate award date is recorded. The requirement was one lot. The published information does not state evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility conditions.

For contractors competing for similar Herefordshire Council requirements, this award demonstrates demand for road resurfacing delivered as construction works, rather than materials supply alone. A credible competitor would need practical road-surfacing delivery capability and the capacity to undertake a substantial, time-limited programme of works within the county. Tarmac Trading Limited, a large supplier, was selected, indicating that a supplier able to mobilise and deliver at scale was capable of meeting this requirement. The available procurement information does not identify particular accreditations, technical standards or experience thresholds, so it does not support treating any specific credential as a stated condition. The relevant commercial benchmark is the ability to deliver council resurfacing works of comparable scope and scale through a below-threshold procurement.
