Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council procured construction works at Blennerhasset School in England. The requirement covered electrical upgrades, including complete replacement of the school’s fire and security systems, together with roofing and other building-fabric works. This is a multi-disciplinary building improvement project combining electrical installation with roofing and related construction work. The primary category is construction work. The buying organisation is Cumberland Council, based in Carlisle, and the delivery location is identified as England. The requirement would suit contractors able to coordinate building-fabric repairs with electrical and life-safety system upgrades in a school environment, including the management of works across several technical disciplines.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 15 June 2026 following a tender process. The tender submission deadline was 20 May 2026 at 23:59. The estimated and awarded value was £110,887 including the stated currency of GBP. Roland Hill (Parsonby) Limited was selected as the supplier. The contract period runs from 20 July 2026 to 28 August 2026. The procurement used a method described as “Other”. It was classified as works and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation resulted in an active award to the named supplier, with the awarded requirement covering the electrical, fire, security, roofing and fabric works described above.

This award demonstrates demand from Cumberland Council for a small, time-limited school refurbishment combining electrical infrastructure, fire and security systems, roofing and wider building-fabric work. A credible future competitor would need to deliver construction works while coordinating electrical and roofing specialists, managing interfaces between safety systems and the building envelope, and working safely around an education setting. Relevant capability includes experience of full fire and security system replacement, electrical upgrades, roofing repairs and associated fabric works, supported by reliable site supervision and supply-chain control. The opportunity is particularly relevant to SMEs able to manage a compact, multi-trade project for a local-authority buyer.
