## Summary

West Sussex County Council is procuring unclassified road condition surveys to assess the condition of the county’s unclassified roads and identify suitably qualified survey providers. The work is a surveying and road-inspection service, covering West Sussex. The requirement is for Lot 1, focused on survey work during 2027. Suppliers should expect to undertake road condition inspections and provide survey findings to support the council’s understanding of its unclassified road network.

The council invited offers through an open competition below the relevant threshold. The procurement reached the tender stage, with responses assessed as the Most Advantageous Tender: price is weighted at 70% and technical quality at 30%. The tender’s enquiry deadline was 30 October 2026 at 12:00, and the submission deadline was 10 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 30 December 2026 to 10 November 2027. The estimated value is £75,000 excluding VAT and £90,000 including VAT. The procurement is divided into one lot. Selection criteria and further evaluation details are set out in the quotation pack.

This requirement is suited to small and medium-sized enterprises, and participation is reserved for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises located in West Sussex. It will suit providers with the technical capability and practical capacity to survey unclassified roads and deliver reliable condition data across the county. The evaluation places greater weight on price than technical quality, so bidders need to offer a competitive cost alongside a clear, credible technical response. The stated selection requirements and detailed evaluation provisions are in the quotation pack, which businesses should review to confirm the precise evidence and delivery approach expected.
