Summary of the contracting process

St.Helens Council has initiated a procurement process for site investigation works at 260 Windlehurst Subway, under the Rochdale Framework. This project entails construction work in the North West of the United Kingdom, with George Cox & Sons Limited chosen as the supplier through a direct award method. The procurement status is 'complete' and the contract spans from 11 October 2025 to 31 March 2026, with an awarded value of £29,121.41. This contract aligns with the 'works' category according to the Common Procurement Vocabulary (CPV) classification, and the award was officially published on 17 November 2025.

This tender creates opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), conducive to business growth specifically within the construction sector. Companies with expertise in site inspection and refurbishment work can leverage this opportunity to expand their portfolio. Given the direct award procurement method, businesses already recognized in frameworks like the Rochdale Framework would be well-positioned to engage in similar future contract opportunities with local councils operating in the region.
