Summary of the contracting process

Westmorland and Furness Council procured construction works at Burlington CE School in the North West as part of its planned school maintenance and sustainability programmes. The requirement combines electrical and building-fabric works. Electrical work covers a new fire alarm, security systems, door access controls and associated containment. Fabric work covers modifications to foul drainage, chimney repointing, roofing repairs and general repairs to the external building fabric. This is a works contract in the construction sector, intended to maintain and improve a school building. The requirement would suit contractors able to manage coordinated electrical and fabric repairs in an occupied or operational education setting, with the capability to deliver multiple building disciplines through one contract.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender had an estimated value of £160,000, while the active award to Stobbarts Limited was £193,803. The award date was 30 July 2026. The tender submission deadline was 9 July 2026 at 12:00. The awarded contract period runs from 14 August 2026 to 30 October 2026. Westmorland and Furness Council is the buyer. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is for the combined Burlington CE School electrical and fabric works requirement, rather than separate awards to different suppliers or lots.

This award indicates demand from Westmorland and Furness Council for small, coordinated school-maintenance packages combining building services and external fabric repairs. A credible future competitor would need practical experience installing and upgrading fire alarms, security and access-control systems, including the associated containment, alongside roofing, chimney, drainage and general external repair work. The requirement favours contractors able to plan several workstreams, coordinate specialist trades, manage interfaces between electrical and building work, and deliver safely in a school environment. Framework access and the ability to perform a short, defined works package would also be commercially relevant. Small and medium-sized contractors, voluntary or community organisations with the required construction capability, and firms able to partner with complementary specialists are well placed to consider similar requirements from this buyer.
