Framework Description
Staffordshire County Council is procuring a Framework Agreement for the Supply, Installation, Repairs and Maintenance of Tarmacadam and Other Surfaces. Priced on scheduled rates, it will cover surfacing around Council buildings and grounds, mainly within Staffordshire: playgrounds and markings, car parks, sports courts and pedestrian ways, plus fixed equipment such as benches, canopies, lighting and EV charge points.
Context & Use Case
The Council will use it for responsive surface repairs and for planned resurfacing and upgrade programmes across its estate, including playgrounds, car parks and footpaths around Council buildings. Scheduled rates let it instruct work quickly without pricing each job from scratch, and including fixed equipment means one contractor can complete a whole site upgrade.

Who Can Apply
Suits surfacing contractors working in tarmacadam and alternative surfaces, ideally with experience on council grounds and the ability to install associated equipment. The framework is still being procured, so contractors should prepare to bid when the tender opens.
Buyer Benefits
Scheduled rates give the Council predictable costs and quick instruction for repairs, and one framework covering surfaces and fixed equipment means a car park or playground can be upgraded in one order. Safe, accessible surfaces also reduce trip claims and keep sites usable.
Next Steps
Use the listing linked from this page to reach the tender documents and confirm the deadline. Prepare a schedule of rates you can sustain across Staffordshire, plus case studies of playground, car park and sports court work, accreditations, plant and labour capacity, and evidence of installing lighting or EV charge points if you offer them.
