Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured works to replace boardwalks at Uplands and Whiteley Primary Schools. The requirement sits within the council’s Landscape and External Works Framework 2023–2027 and is classified as landscaping work. The work is associated with the schools in the Winchester area, with the council’s listed address in Winchester, Hampshire. The buyer is Hampshire County Council, which commissioned the works for its education estate. The requirement is a physical external-works project rather than a supply-only contract, covering the removal and replacement of existing boardwalk infrastructure at the named primary schools. It is therefore relevant to contractors delivering landscaping, access, timber or composite boardwalk, and related site works in school environments.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Hampshire County Council awarded the contract to B&M McHugh Ltd on 5 August 2026 for £36,077.04 including the stated currency of GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 27 July 2026 to 31 August 2026. The tender deadline was 2pm on 29 May 2026. The procurement was conducted as a works tender under the Landscape and External Works Framework 2023–2027, using a method described as ‘Other’. The tender record identifies one requirement for boardwalk replacement at Uplands and Whiteley Primary Schools. The award is active, and the tender status is complete. No separate lot-level awards are identified.

For businesses that did not win this contract, the award is a clear indication that Hampshire County Council buys small-scale school external works through its Landscape and External Works Framework. Relevant competitors would need practical experience replacing boardwalks and similar landscaping assets, together with the ability to plan and work safely around occupied primary-school sites. Credible suppliers are likely to need competent site teams, reliable materials procurement, careful access and segregation arrangements, and the capacity to complete a focused works package within a short delivery window. Contractors should also understand framework tendering and the council’s requirements for formal tender returns. The procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, so bidders should assess whether their organisational scale and capacity match the buyer’s expectations.
