Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council commissioned construction works to replace the roof on an extension at Burgh by Sands Primary School. The requirement is a building works project focused on roof replacement rather than the supply of materials alone. Delivery is associated with Burgh by Sands in Cumbria, with Cumberland Council as the buying organisation. The procurement is classified as construction work and is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The requirement concerns a council-owned or council-managed primary school setting, so relevant businesses are likely to be roofing and building contractors able to work on an occupied or operational education site and coordinate their activities with the school and council.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a tender process. The tender submission deadline was 5 June 2026 at 12:00. Cumberland Council awarded the contract to Stobbarts Ltd on 26 June 2026 for £32,739 including the published currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 17 July 2026 to 31 August 2026. The procurement record describes the route as “Other”, without further procedural detail. The award is recorded as active. The same supplier and value are reported for the award, with no separate lots identified. The outcome shows a short-duration, single-requirement works contract rather than a framework or multi-supplier arrangement.

This award is relevant to roofing and general building contractors with experience replacing roofs on school extensions or similar public buildings. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to survey existing roof construction, plan removal and installation works, manage weather-related risks, and deliver safely within a constrained programme. Experience of working around schools would help, particularly where site access, safeguarding, noise, dust and coordination with the council or school must be managed carefully. The council’s recorded suitability for SMEs indicates that a smaller established contractor can be competitive where it can demonstrate suitable technical capability, reliable site management, sufficient labour and materials capacity, and a track record of completing comparable roofing works.
