Summary of the contracting process

North East Lincolnshire Council commissioned construction and refurbishment works at Welholme Academy to provide special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) facilities. The requirement is for a contractor to alter and refurbish existing academy accommodation for SEND provision, rather than for the supply of goods or routine services. The work is categorised as construction and falls within the works category. Delivery is in the Yorkshire and the Humber area of England. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement is associated with its education estate. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are building and refurbishment contractors able to undertake alterations in an operational or educational setting and deliver accommodation suitable for SEND use.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Bids closed on 14 May 2026 at 1pm, and the contract was awarded on 14 July 2026. Topcon Building Limited was selected for the contract at £398,525 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 29 January 2027. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation was conducted through the framework call-off process; the available information identifies the construction requirement and framework route but does not set out separate scoring criteria. This is a single construction requirement for the SEND alterations at Welholme Academy.

For a contractor that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates a defined council requirement for academy refurbishment and SEND accommodation alterations at a scale suited to an SME. A credible competitor for a future requirement from North East Lincolnshire Council would need demonstrable capability in construction and refurbishment works, particularly adapting existing education buildings to support special educational needs and disabilities provision. Relevant experience should show the ability to manage alterations within an academy environment, coordinate construction activities safely and deliver a completed facility within a short, defined programme. The procurement route also indicates that access to an appropriate framework agreement, and the ability to compete through its call-off process, would be commercially important.
