Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Amey Defence Services Limited, based in Huntingdon, is currently in the planning stage of a public procurement process for the refurbishment of 67 properties located in Cranwell, East Midlands. This refurbishment project, titled FDIS - Cranwell Refurbishments to 67 properties - FY2025/26 and identified under CPV code 45262690 for the refurbishment of run-down buildings, includes replacing damaged windows, doors, concrete sills, and other structural works. The procurement process utilises an open procedure and is valued between £348,000 and £870,000. Key dates include the publication of the notice on 1st December 2025, with a future notice expected by 19th December 2025, and the contract period spanning from 5th January 2026 to 24th April 2026.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses capable of serving as a main contractor, particularly those in the construction sector with experience in refurbishment projects. With a strong focus on delivering social value and meeting compliance with stringent standards such as DefStan 05-138, this project is compatible with SMEs that can meet these requirements. Successful bidders will need verified credentials and potentially require a PI insurance cover of not less than £1,000,000 for complex projects. Engaging in this tender can lead to further opportunities, as future works of a similar nature may be negotiated based on submitted rates, offering potential growth avenues for experienced contractors.
