Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Cowley Hill Liveable Neighbourhood Phase 2" project has reached the award stage, with St.Helens Council acting as the contracting authority. The tender falls within the construction industry category, specifically focusing on foundation and surface works for highways and roads, with the project located in England. This contract, valued at £241,222.31, was awarded through a direct award method as part of the Rochdale Highways Framework. The contract period is scheduled to commence on 9th February 2026 and conclude on 30th April 2026. Key dates include the closure of the tender period on 28th November 2025 and the publishing of the award notice on 11th December 2025.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and civil engineering, notably small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to engage with public sector contracts and contribute to infrastructure development. Companies with expertise in highway and road works are well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in the future, as demonstrated by George Cox & Sons, the successful supplier for this project. The direct procurement method underscores the advantage of having established relationships within public frameworks, positioning businesses favourably for subsequent calls for tender within the same framework or industry.
