Summary of the contracting process

The Oakham Town Council has initiated a procurement process for the reconstruction of a church wall at All Saints Church Oakham, located at Church Street, Oakham, England. This contract falls under the construction industry, specifically classified under "Construction work" (CPV: 45000000). Currently in the tender stage, the procurement process employs a limited method with competitive quotation below the threshold. The tender period closes on 21st December 2025, with the contract period expected to run from 12th January 2026 to 31st March 2026. The project involves rebuilding a 10-15 metre section of wall due to structural issues related to drainage and tree root invasion. A minimum tender value of £10,000 has been specified, with an estimated overall value of £20,000.

This tender presents opportunities for growth for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) adept in construction work, particularly those experienced with structural repairs involving stonework. Given the procurement method of competitive quotation below the threshold, businesses with competitive pricing strategies and expertise in managing small-scale projects in the locality could stand to benefit significantly. The procurement requirement's emphasis on suitability for SMEs further indicates a strategic alignment with smaller firms potentially looking to expand their presence in public sector contracts.
