Summary of the contracting process

West Northamptonshire Council has completed the procurement process for the design and construction of the New County Mortuary and Post Mortem Facility located at Booth Meadow, Museum Way, Riverside Retail Park, Northampton. This contract was awarded following a selective procurement method via the West Works Construction DPS Framework, with further competition after the initial expression of interest. The tender falls under the construction work category with a CPV code of 45000000. The award was finalised on 1st April 2025, with a value of approximately £6,723,423.23. The awarded contract commences on 3rd April 2025 and is set to conclude by the end of December 2025.

This contract offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for large-scale construction firms with the capability to handle significant projects within the healthcare infrastructure sector. The project not only represents a significant investment in regional health facilities but also reinforces the company's market presence in the Northampton area. Businesses that specialise in large-scale construction and possess the necessary resources to fulfil such contracts are well-suited to compete for similar opportunities, albeit this particular procurement has already been awarded to Stepnell Limited, a company based in Rugby, Warwickshire.
