UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council commissioned presurface dressing patch works, a road construction and maintenance requirement to prepare road surfaces and carry out patch repairs before surface dressing. The work is for the council’s roads in Herefordshire. The award identifies the work as construction, but does not give a further breakdown of roads, repair quantities or technical methods. Tarmac Trading Limited was selected to carry out the works. This is a council highways requirement rather than a general building project, and is most relevant to contractors working in road surfacing, carriageway preparation and patch repair. The procurement was made under an existing framework, so the award relates to a specific works package rather than establishing a new framework for suppliers.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Herefordshire Council used a selective, below-threshold award under a framework; the call-off was not competitive. Tarmac Trading Limited was awarded the single lot. The contract value is £763,557.58 excluding VAT (£916,269.10 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The contract was formally executed on 27 August 2026, although the contract record gives 1 July 2026 as the signature date; the stated commencement date is 1 July 2026. The award is recorded as active, with no separate award date supplied. No evaluation criteria are set out in the available process details.

For road surfacing and highways contractors, this award demonstrates demand from Herefordshire Council for presurface dressing preparation and patch works delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor would need practical capability in carriageway patch repair and road-surface preparation, together with the plant, workforce and operational capacity to deliver a substantial package of highways works across the council’s area. The selected supplier, Tarmac Trading Limited, is a large construction materials and road contracting business, indicating that the requirement was met by a supplier with established scale. The route matters commercially: the council used an existing framework and made a non-competitive call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need relevant framework access as well as suitable roadworks experience. The award provides a clear example of the type of highways package the council buys.
