Summary of the contracting process

Mid Devon District Council commissioned construction of new storage bays at Mid Devon Waste. The works comprise site setup and survey, setting out the site, excavating and installing foundations, fabricating mild-steel sections from the council’s drawings, finishing the steelwork in yellow, and installing it with lifting equipment. The contractor also installs concrete panels supplied by the council, completes the specified works, clears the site and hands it over. This is building construction work, delivered in Devon. The requirement combines steel fabrication with groundworks and on-site installation, including coordination of lifting equipment and incorporation of client-supplied panels. The council is the buyer; the project concerns its Mid Devon Waste site.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. Mid Devon District Council used a below-threshold limited competition for a single lot. W & E Electrical Services was awarded the contract, which is active and was signed on 1 September 2026. The contract runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. Its value is £56,000 excluding VAT (£67,200 including VAT). The works were evaluated through the limited competition; the published process information gives no further detail on evaluation criteria. The award covers construction of the storage bays, with the council providing the concrete panels for installation. The outcome establishes the supplier chosen for this defined construction package; it does not report separate awards for different parts of the work.

This requirement suits a contractor able to combine mild-steel fabrication with civil and building works, rather than a supplier offering fabrication or installation alone. A credible competitor would need to interpret and reproduce client-provided design drawings, fabricate and finish structural steel, undertake site survey and setting-out, and excavate and construct foundations to specification. The work also calls for safe handling and installation of steel using lifting equipment, fitting client-supplied concrete panels, and completing site clearance and handover. The awarded package demonstrates that Mid Devon District Council uses a limited competition for a below-threshold construction requirement of this type. Suppliers with the practical capacity to manage fabrication, groundworks and coordinated on-site installation as one package would be best aligned if the council’s storage-bay requirement returns to market.
