Summary of the contracting process

The Spires Academy project, managed by MACE Limited in Northampton, is a significant public procurement initiative focused on construction works in the education sector. The purpose is to refurbish a 1970s office block to create specialised accommodation for up to 100 primary and secondary pupils, with services starting in January 2018 and expected completion by December 2018. This open procurement process requires contractors to submit tenders by 14 July 2017, with a fixed budget of £2.7 million for the project. The project necessitates expertise in Alternative Provision and special educational needs (SEN), alongside capabilities such as asbestos removal and general structural works.

This contract presents a valuable opportunity for businesses with a background in educational facility construction and refurbishment, particularly those experienced in working within conservation areas. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate relevant project experience, particularly in SEN provision, would be well-suited to compete. Contractors interested in this tender should prepare to provide evidence of previous similar projects and be ready to operate within the designated budget and timeline constraints.
