## Summary

Cumbria County Council is procuring a framework for Small Value Surfacing Works, spanning from August 1, 2018, to July 31, 2021. This contract, valued at £4,250,000, focuses on construction, foundation, and surface works for highways and roads, primarily catering to projects with a surface area of less than 250m² and individual work package values under £100,000. The tender process is currently in the Award stage, with the bid submission period having closed on June 25, 2018. The framework aims to enhance local surfacing capabilities by collaborating with effective local contractors in the North West region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the construction sector, particularly those specialising in surfacing and roadworks. Successful bidders could engage in a variety of lower value surfacing schemes, including machine laid patching and footway or cycleway projects. Businesses well-suited for participation include local surfacing contractors, paving specialists, and firms with experience in delivering similar infrastructure projects. By securing a place on this framework, companies can significantly expand their network and strengthen their position in the local market.

## Notice

This opportunity is advertised via https://www.the-chest.org.uk/ Cumbria County Council requires a framework for a range of smaller surfacing contractors spread around the County. This framework is being procured to fill the gap between the current in-house capability and the three Core Surfacing Contracts. The aim is to strengthen the depth of local provision and procure the work from the most appropriate and efficient suppliers. This framework will deliver lower value surfacing schemes, machine laid patching schemes and footway/cycleway schemes. Surfacing schemes will generally be less than 250m2 in continuous surface area and work package values are generally expected to be less than PS100,000. The framework may also be used to commission a surfacing gang with plant on a day basis to support in-house delivery of schemes. In addition the framework will include provision for Spray Injection Patching. See tender documents for further information. Please send all correspondence via messages area on The Chest. For queries about using the Chest, please view the help pages in the Suppliers Area/Help guides.
