Summary of the contracting process

Plymouth City Council commissioned Oceansgate Phase 3.1 enabling works in England. The requirement covers site preparation and associated construction activity, including demolition, site clearance and remedial works. It is classified as site preparation work and is part of the Oceansgate development. The council is the buyer, with the work delivered by a construction contractor rather than a supplier of goods or routine services. The scope is suited to firms able to manage several enabling-work disciplines within a coordinated site operation, including safe demolition, clearance of sites and structures, and remedial treatment of existing conditions. Businesses considering comparable opportunities from this buyer should focus on practical delivery of enabling works for development sites and the ability to coordinate specialist activities under one contract.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following an other procedure. Bids closed on 10 December 2024 at 12:00 GMT. Plymouth City Council awarded the contract to Morgan Sindall Construction & Infrastructure Limited on 17 July 2026. The awarded value is £275,000 including the stated currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 20 July 2026 to 17 September 2026. The award is active and the tender status is complete. This was a single requirement for works, with no separate lots identified. The recorded suitability assessment states that the opportunity was not aimed at small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award records one supplier for the full requirement, covering demolition, clearance and remedial enabling works.

For a supplier that did not win this contract, the award shows that Plymouth City Council’s Oceansgate programme uses a main construction contractor for a compact, multi-disciplinary enabling-works package. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable experience in demolition, site clearance, site preparation and remedial works, with the ability to plan and control these activities as one coordinated operation. Evidence of safe working practices, competent supervision, suitable plant and specialist subcontractor management would strengthen a future response. The buyer’s recorded assessment did not identify the requirement as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, so firms should be prepared to demonstrate substantial delivery capacity and the organisational controls expected of an established construction business. Experience on development or regeneration sites would be particularly relevant.
