Summary of the contracting process

The Education Authority has awarded a contract for the appointment of an Integrated Supply Team to deliver a new build facility for Abbey Community College in Newtownabbey. This project falls under the industry category of "Building construction work" and primarily involves works related to education infrastructure. Situated on Bridge Road in Newtownabbey, the facility aims to cater to 820 post-primary pupils, featuring two storeys with single-storey elements across an 11,650 square metre gross internal floor area. Construction will also include new sports pitches, parking provisions, and enhanced site access. This contract follows the award stage, with the project completion date marked by the contract signed on 11th April 2025. The contracting method used was a restricted procedure, and the value of the contract is £34,794,914.77.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction, particularly those specialising in educational infrastructure. Companies with expertise in building large-scale school facilities and sports amenities will find this project aligns with their capabilities. Moreover, businesses capable of working within restrictive procurement processes and delivering high-quality construction work on time will be well-suited to compete. As the project is extensive, there is potential for subcontracting parts of the work, offering further opportunities for smaller businesses to get involved. The procurement priorities include quality, social value, and competitive pricing, making it an attractive proposition for businesses that can deliver on these criteria.
