Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council sought roadstone and quarry materials for its Roads Operations, supporting the construction and maintenance of carriageways and footways across Fife. The requirement covered Type 1 sub-base granular, single-sized and graded roadstone, concrete aggregates, coated roadstone and ready-mix concrete. Materials included dry and coated aggregates and concrete, with relevant dry materials and aggregates required to comply with the Specification for Highway Works and British and European Standards. Delivery and collection were required across Fife, where the council operates a range of roadworks and needs access to suppliers in the area. This was a goods procurement for highway construction and maintenance materials, including aggregates and concrete products.

The procurement used an open procedure and was evaluated on 80% price and 20% quality. It had four lots, each with a contract period of 720 days and provision for renewal of up to 24 months. The estimated overall tender value was £12.8 million. Bids were due by 31 March 2026 at 12:00, with bid opening scheduled for 12:30 the same day; bids were to remain valid for 180 days. A framework agreement could include up to 12 participants, with electronic ordering and electronic payment. The outcome was unsuccessful across all four lots: each lot was cancelled and each corresponding award was discontinued. The requirement was recurrent, with a possible further process identified if the extension was not used by February 2028.

This procurement indicates substantial, recurring demand from Fife Council for suppliers able to provide and deliver highway aggregates, graded roadstone, coated roadstone and ready-mix concrete across Fife. Credible competitors would need reliable quarry or production capacity, delivery and collection arrangements covering council road operations, and the ability to supply consistent materials to the Specification for Highway Works and applicable British and European Standards. The opportunity also favoured businesses able to manage several material categories, operate within a framework structure and support electronic ordering and invoicing. Suppliers should be prepared to identify proposed subcontractors, meet economic and technical selection requirements, and offer practical community benefits, including social, economic and environmental value, as part of service delivery.
