Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is procuring building works for the Single Living Accommodation scheme at Buckley Barracks. The project is titled “Buckley Barracks SLA - RIBA Stage 3-4” and relates to modular and portable buildings (CPV 44211100). The work supports the barracks’ single living accommodation requirements. Delivery is at Buckley Barracks, in the South West of England. The procurement is a call-off from the Ministry of Defence Defence Infrastructure Organisation’s Single Living Accommodation Programmatic Approach Framework Alliance Contract. The Ministry of Defence is the buyer, and the requirement concerns works rather than a supply-only or service contract.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Bowmer and Kirkland Ltd. The award was made on 1 September 2026, with a contract value of £2,393,255. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 25 June 2027. It was a selective framework call-off, rather than a new open competition. The tender submission deadline was 27 March 2026. The published information gives the selected supplier and awarded value, but does not set out an evaluation formula or scored criteria. The opportunity was marked unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award shows demand from the Ministry of Defence for delivery of single living accommodation works at a barracks, including work associated with modular and portable buildings and RIBA Stages 3–4. A future competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to deliver building works for defence accommodation, coordinate design and construction through these project stages, and work within the Ministry of Defence’s framework-based buying route. The selected contractor was a large construction company, indicating that the requirement was placed with a supplier able to take on a substantial, site-specific works package. Relevant experience in barracks or other controlled defence environments, together with capacity to manage the full scope and meet the buyer’s technical and delivery requirements, would support credibility if this requirement returns to market.
