In plain English
Shropshire Council is looking for one contractor to repair and maintain the local roads, pavements, kerbs, drains, road markings and signs across the county, and to help with winter gritting, snow clearance and flood or emergency response. The contract is worth up to £100 million over nine years if the five-year term is extended by four years, and the council does not guarantee any fixed amount of work.
What the buyer wants
• Carry out minor highway repairs, including potholes, carriageway edges, ironwork, kerbs, footways, road markings, road signs, street furniture, drainage grips, crack and joint sealing, and alternative repair methods such as thermal repair and spray injection patching. • Provide winter gritting, snow clearance, and emergency response to incidents and flooding on the highway network. • Deliver programmed works such as hand and machine patching, minor improvement schemes, defect backlog clearance and Category 2L (low risk) repairs, working collaboratively with the council and supporting local supply chains and social value.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The council is appointing a single contractor to cover all of this work across Shropshire on a £100 million, nine-year contract, so most small businesses would only be able to take part by joining a larger contractor's supply chain rather than bidding alone.
Always check the tender documents.
