Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority awarded a direct procurement contract for the upgrade of the Moss Side Fire Station. This contract, titled "GMCA 1311 Moss Side Rest Facilities," falls under the construction industry category (CPV 45000000). The procurement was conducted via a direct award method, and the award was completed by 18th December 2025, with the contract period beginning on 2nd December 2024 and ending on 24th April 2025. The contract is valued at £218,061.98 and is intended to be carried out within the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those capable of supporting major infrastructure upgrades. The direct award process emphasized efficiency and streamlined operations, making it especially suited for established companies capable of meeting project demands. Although the procurement was notably large-scale, businesses that are structured to respond swiftly and effectively to direct award opportunities, such as those offering specialised construction services, are well-positioned to benefit. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) were identified as suitable for this tender, although the winning supplier, Parr Group, is a large-scale organisation. This indicates potential for collaboration or subcontracting opportunities for smaller businesses seeking growth in the public sector market.
