Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has completed the procurement process for the Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) activities at Buckley Barracks, Hullavington, under the Single Living Accommodation (SLA) Programmatic Approach Framework Alliance Contract. This tender falls within the works category, specifically involving modular and portable buildings, and utilises a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement. An award notice was published on 15th December 2025, and the contract period spans from 17th November 2025 to 27th February 2026. The Ministry of Defence is based in Lichfield, England, and the contract's delivery location is the South West region of the United Kingdom, with a total contract value of £384,984.25.

This contract presents lucrative opportunities for businesses experienced in modular construction, particularly those capable of meeting the unique demands of military infrastructure projects. Large enterprises like Bowmer and Kirkland Limited, the awarded contractor, are well-positioned to undertake this contract due to their capacity to handle significant works contracts. Smaller businesses or those focusing on VCSE (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises) initiatives may face challenges due to unsuitability criteria indicating preferences for large-scale suppliers. Nonetheless, involvement in such government projects can facilitate business expansion and strengthen reputations within the industry, especially for firms with expertise in rapid deployment and innovative building solutions.
