Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Central Bedfordshire Council has procured works to refurbish the main kitchen at Maythorn. The requirement covers fitted kitchen refurbishment and installation, including kitchen conversion work, at the Maythorn site in Shefford, Bedfordshire. This is a building refurbishment project rather than a supply-only purchase: the appointed contractor is to carry out the kitchen works. The council is the buyer and the work is associated with its Maythorn premises. The procurement is categorised as works, with the central requirement being the refurbishment of a main kitchen.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to G&S Hutchinson Ltd on 21 October 2026. The award is recorded at £0, so the published award data does not provide a usable contract price. The contract period runs from 2 November 2026 to 25 January 2027. The tender submission deadline was 8 September 2026 at 12:00. The procurement method is described only as “Other”; the record does not set out an evaluation basis or selection criteria. No lots are identified, so the refurbishment is presented as one requirement. Central Bedfordshire Council is the contracting buyer, and the selected supplier is based in Potton, Bedfordshire.

For firms competing for similar Central Bedfordshire Council work, this award shows demand for delivery of a complete main-kitchen refurbishment at a council site, rather than kitchen products alone. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to manage and carry out the relevant refurbishment and fitted-kitchen installation works as a coordinated project. The council’s suitability assessment does not mark this requirement as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, so businesses should consider whether they have the capacity and commercial scale to take on comparable work. The named successful supplier is a Bedfordshire-based company, indicating that a local contractor delivered this project; location alone does not establish a requirement for local suppliers. No specific accreditation or technical qualification is stated.
