Lot details

Lot 1

This is not a new contract opportunity, but rather a VEAT notice to inform the market that the contracting authority is seeking to extend their existing contract for the provision of highway maintenance services with M Group Highways. The contract was originally awarded on the 21st November 2016 and is due to expire on 31 March 2027. The extension period will be for 2 year (terminating on 31 March 2029). The extension will ensure continuity of highway maintenance services in Devon during the period in which the plans for English Devolution (Government Proposals announced on the 16th December 2024) to abolish all two-tier councils will be enacted. A full procurement exercise can be undertaken for contract(s) to start in April 2029. The total value of the extension is estimated at £100,000,000

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Road equipment (34920000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 342,9793 median · 24.8 average (1,107 of 2,979 with a bid count)3.7 average (1,220 of 2,979 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

Procurement strategy & market signals

Framework agreementNot published
Dynamic purchasing systemNot published
Competitive procurementNot published
Recurring requirementNot published
Procurement method rationaleThe current contract is being modified to allow extension under Regulation 72(1)(c) Unforeseen circumstances that could have not been predicted. The need for modification has been brought about by the surprise Government proposals published in the form of a White Paper on 16th December 2024 announcing plans for English Devolution ("Government Proposals"). In essence, all two-tier councils will be abolished over the next three years. These circumstances could not have been foreseen. The modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract , and the increase in value does not exceed the original value by 50%.

In essence, all two-tier councils will be abolished over the next three years. These circumstances could not have been foreseen.\nThe modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract , and the increase in value does not exceed the original value by 50%.",
