Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned external decoration and repair works at Calthorpe Park School. The requirement is categorised as building works, focused on maintaining and redecorating the school’s external fabric. The scope is described as external decorations and repairs, procured through the council’s Decoration & Minor Pre-decoration Repairs Framework. Delivery is at Calthorpe Park School; the procurement gives the postcode SO23 8UL. The buyer is Hampshire County Council, based in Winchester. This is a school-focused property maintenance requirement rather than a general decorating services contract, and its framework route places the work within the council’s wider programme for decoration and minor pre-decoration repairs.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Richardson Decorating Contractors Ltd. The award date was 7 October 2026 and the award value is £264,692.20. The contract period runs from 5 October to 19 December 2026. The tender deadline was 9 September 2026 at 2pm. This was Lot 2, a direct award under the Decoration & Minor Pre-decoration Repairs Framework 2024–2028; the published method details describe the procedure as “Other”. Evaluation criteria are not stated in the process data. The requirement was classified as works, with SME and voluntary, community and social enterprise suitability both marked false.

This award evidences demand from Hampshire County Council for substantial external decoration and repair work at a school, delivered through its established decoration and minor pre-decoration repairs framework. A credible competitor for a comparable future requirement would need to deliver external building decoration alongside associated repair work, and be able to organise a concentrated programme at an occupied or operational school site. Experience coordinating this combined scope and completing work to the buyer’s required timescale would be commercially relevant. The framework route is also significant: suppliers seeking similar work should be positioned to compete through the council’s framework arrangements, rather than treating this as an isolated open-market decorating contract. The award indicates that the requirement was placed with a specialist decorating contractor.
