Summary of the contracting process

Kirklees Council procured internal refurbishment and remodelling works for Civic Centre 3, part of the Civic Centre Campus in Huddersfield. The project reconfigures internal layouts and upgrades building services and infrastructure, including mechanical and electrical systems and IT and communications infrastructure. It also includes new finishes throughout. The work was to be carried out while the building remained operational, so delivery involved working within an occupied civic building and coordinating construction activity with ongoing operations. This is a building refurbishment and alteration project, rather than a supply-only requirement, with the work taking place at the Huddersfield civic centre.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Walter West Builders Ltd. Kirklees Council used a restricted procedure. The tender deadline was 17 August 2026, and the award was made on 22 October 2026. The awarded value was £421,681.56. The planned contract period runs from 9 November 2026 to 5 March 2027. The tender estimated a value range of £421,681 to £595,480. The procurement was for a single works requirement; no lot-by-lot awards are reported. The available outcome data identifies the selected supplier and award value but does not set out the evaluation criteria or a detailed scoring basis.

The award shows demand from Kirklees Council for a principal contractor able to deliver a compact, multi-discipline refurbishment in an operational public building. A credible competitor for this specific requirement would need to coordinate internal remodelling, mechanical and electrical upgrades, building infrastructure, IT and communications installation, and new finishes as one integrated package. The occupied-site constraint makes phasing, safe separation of construction from building users, and careful coordination of services and access central delivery capabilities. The selected supplier was identified as a large business, and the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Suppliers considering comparable future work for this buyer should therefore be able to demonstrate the organisational capacity and relevant building refurbishment experience to manage concurrent trades and maintain essential building operations.
