Summary of the contracting process

Somerset Council procured the design, supply and installation of a fully functioning modular hall at Milford Infants. The building comprises a 120 m² hall and a 30 m² store with separate external access ramps, suitable windows and doors, heating, lighting, and flooring strong enough for its intended use. The hall is intended to serve as children’s exercise space, a dining area and an events venue. This is a modular building and construction project. Delivery is in Somerset, in the South West of England.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Healthmatic Modular Ltd on 18 September 2026. The award value is £254,521.34. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 1 March 2027. The council selected a supplier through a mini-competition under the SWPA Modular Buildings 3 Framework, rather than an open standalone competition. The tender deadline was 8 June 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lot breakdown or separate evaluation criteria are reported.

This award shows Somerset Council’s demand for a turnkey modular school building that combines a hall and store with access ramps, heating, lighting and facilities suited to children’s exercise, dining and events. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to deliver the complete package: design, supply and installation of the modular unit, together with the required building elements and fit-out. The work requires construction and modular-building capability, including provision of a floor suitable for the planned activities. The council used a mini-competition through a modular buildings framework, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be equipped to compete through that route. The award went to an SME, and the opportunity was marked as suitable for SMEs.
