Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA), located at ADDLESTONE in the United Kingdom, has recently concluded the procurement process for the "B422A Construction of Building 422A" project. This tender, categorised under construction work (CPV code 45000000), utilised a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded on 16th January 2026 to Willmott Dixon Construction Limited, with a total contract value of £9,149,793. The contract commenced on the award date and is set to end on 31st December 2027. The project location is in the South East region, with postal code KT15 3NB, and the tender is in the award stage as of the publication date, 20th January 2026.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in large-scale construction projects, particularly those with experience in framework agreements and selective procurement processes. The substantial contract value and long-term duration indicate potential for business growth and involvement in a prestigious government-funded project. However, it is worth noting that suitability for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) was not highlighted, suggesting that larger construction firms or those with the capacity to scale up operations will be better suited to compete for similar future opportunities.
