Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Salford City College procured the design and construction of cladding refurbishment works at its Chatsworth Road site in Eccles, Manchester, M30 9FJ. The requirement covers the full refurbishment solution, combining design services with construction and associated cladding works. It is classified as cladding works and falls within the works category. The college is the public-sector buyer, based at Worsley Campus, Walkden Road, Worsley. The project is relevant to principal contractors, building-envelope specialists, cladding contractors and construction businesses able to provide both design input and on-site refurbishment delivery for an educational client. The published requirement identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to suitably capable specialist firms as well as larger contractors.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following an open procedure. Bids closed on 21 June 2026. DATUM GROUP LIMITED was awarded the contract on 6 August 2026 for £1,088,106 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 22 June 2026 to 2 October 2026. The awarded scope is the design and construction of cladding refurbishment at Chatsworth Road, Eccles, Manchester. The tender was classified as works and as cladding works. The award is active and the tender status is complete. This is a single awarded requirement; the published outcome identifies Salford City College as the buyer and DATUM GROUP LIMITED as the successful supplier.

For suppliers that did not win, this award provides a clear example of Salford City College’s demand for substantial cladding refurbishment delivered through a combined design-and-construction contract. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need demonstrable expertise in diagnosing cladding conditions, developing compliant refurbishment designs, selecting and installing suitable façade systems, and managing construction safely on an occupied or operational education estate. Relevant firms would also need enough project-management, surveying, design coordination, procurement and site-delivery capacity to act as a principal contractor or work effectively with one. The opportunity is particularly aligned with SMEs that can evidence specialist cladding and refurbishment experience at comparable scale.
