Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire Constabulary commissioned refurbishment works at Greenbank Custody. The requirement covers construction work to refurbish the custody facility, delivered at Greenbank Custody. It is a works contract rather than a supply or standalone professional-services opportunity. The buying organisation is Lancashire Constabulary, which is responsible for the requirement and its delivery. The procurement was designed as a low-value construction opportunity within the Northwest Construction Hub framework, covering projects in the framework’s stated £1 million to £4 million range. Businesses relevant to this requirement are construction contractors and refurbishment specialists able to undertake work in a custody setting. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to established smaller construction firms as well as larger contractors operating through the framework.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a mini-competition through the Northwest Construction Hub Low Value £1m–£4m framework. Bids were due by 17 June 2026 at 12:00. Lancashire Constabulary awarded the contract to Whitfield & Brown on 15 July 2026 for £1,781,975.62 including the stated currency of GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 15 July 2026 to 29 January 2027. The published procurement value and awarded value are the same. The contracting process used a framework mini-competition rather than an open standalone tender. The available outcome records identify the successful supplier and the contract dates, while the procurement information does not state a separate price, quality or other evaluation weighting.

This award demonstrates a defined demand from Lancashire Constabulary for substantial refurbishment and construction work in a custody environment. A competing supplier would need credible capability to plan and deliver building refurbishment, manage work safely in a secure operational facility and complete the required construction activities within a comparatively short delivery period. Experience of working for public-sector or security-sensitive organisations would help demonstrate reliability, governance and site-management competence. Firms should also be able to operate through the relevant Northwest Construction Hub framework and compete effectively in its low-value construction band. The opportunity’s SME suitability indicates that capable smaller contractors may be well placed, either as lead framework suppliers or as specialist partners within a construction delivery team.
