## Summary

Oxfordshire County Council commissioned annual SCRIM surveys and SCRIM site-category review services for its A, B and C classified road network. The work covers the Principal A roads and Non-Principal B and C roads, surveyed in both directions each year, using the single annual skid survey (SASS). SCRIM data supports national reporting, road-safety assessment and the development of safety schemes, so accuracy is safety-critical. Surveys must be carried out using accredited survey vehicles. The work is delivered across Oxfordshire for the county council. This is a surface surveying services requirement, classified under CPV 71353000, and is intended for a specialist road-surface survey provider rather than a general highways maintenance contractor.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to W.D.M. LIMITED through a below-threshold limited competition. The award was made on 18 August 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The awarded value is £76,455.84 excluding VAT, or £95,569.80 including VAT. The contract runs from 18 August 2026 to 17 August 2028, with one possible one-year extension to 17 August 2029. There was one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The successful supplier is W.D.M. LIMITED, a small or medium-sized enterprise. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition route under the applicable public procurement legislation.

This requirement shows established demand from Oxfordshire County Council for specialist, repeatable skid-resistance surveying across a substantial classified-road network. A credible future competitor would need accredited survey vehicles, current vehicle accreditation evidence and accreditation certificates covering the previous three survey periods. It would also need the operational capacity to survey A, B and C roads in both directions each year, provide accurate and correct SCRIM and SASS data, and support the council’s road-safety reporting and safety-scheme development. Relevant capability is therefore centred on accredited road-surface surveying, dependable data quality, annual network-wide field operations and experience handling safety-critical highway information for a local authority.

## Notice

The SCRIM survey is safety-critical and required for national reporting and must be carried out on accredited survey vehicles only. Survey suppliers must provide proof of current vehicle accreditation as well as accreditation certificates from the previous three survey periods. Oxfordshire County Council would like to carry out the SCRIM survey on our A,B,C SCRIM network and using the single annual skid survey (SASS), details are within the Specification. SCRIM survey data should be accurate and correct, as the data will be used for generating safety schemes, reporting and is vital for road safety. We require our Principal (A) Classified Roads and Non-Principal (B,C) Classified Roads, to be surveyed in both directions each year
