Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Education has initiated a public procurement process titled "Schools Property Flood Resilience: Regional Providers (Design and Build)" targeting the construction industry across multiple regions in the United Kingdom. This procurement aims to enhance flood resilience in school properties, specifically through Property Flood Resilience (PFR) installations in high-risk areas. The procurement comprises five regional Lots, covering North West, North East, West Midlands and South (excluding London), London, and East Midlands and East of England. The process is currently in the tender stage with a submission deadline by 5th May 2026. Interested bidders are encouraged to participate in an open competitive procedure, which includes evaluation through a price-per-quality-point methodology, offering a contract duration starting from 1st September 2026 with potential extensions. The project is valued at £100 million excluding VAT.

For businesses within the construction and environmental sectors, particularly those specialising in flood-prevention works, construction for school buildings, and project design and estimated cost preparations, this tender represents a significant growth opportunity. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are considered suitable and are encouraged to bid, with the possibility of engaging as subcontractors or forming consortia. Businesses with expertise in delivering PFR solutions, including green and nature-based systems, will find their skills highly relevant for this project. Additionally, the opportunity to tender for multiple Lots could expand business reach across different regions, albeit with a cap on winning a maximum of three Lots per supplier. This procurement not only offers financial growth but also allows firms to contribute to social value, such as skills development and environmental engagement.

Notice Title

Schools Property Flood Resilience: Regional Providers (Design and Build)

Notice Description

The Schools Water Strategy is an "invest to save" strategy aimed at reducing the risk of flooding in schools. This planned procurement is to enable the expansion of the current Property Flood Resilience (PFR) installations across the school estate, specifically targeting members of the Risk Protection Arrangement (RPA) for schools in high-risk flood areas and schools that have suffered repeated flooding disruption. This procurement is looking for Potential Suppliers with the capability in their own organisations or with named supply chain partners to design and build property flood resilience solutions across both grey and green (nature-based) categories. The maximum contract value including optional extensions across all Lots is PS100 million (excluding VAT). The initial 3 year contract term is valued at PS57 million across all Lots, equating to roughly PS11.4 million per Lot. The DfE is looking to award 5 regional contracts that will deliver PFR measures in specific schools (selected by the DfE based upon flood risk) in each region. The procurement will be structured into five regional Lots to ensure equal coverage across England. Each Lot will be split into regions as follow: * Lot 1: North West * Lot 2: North East * Lot 3: West Midlands and South (excluding London) * Lot 4: London * Lot 5: East Midlands and East of England Each Lot will have a target to complete a minimum of 10 schools per year over the contract period; however, suppliers would be expected to work on more than 10 projects a year to achieve the targets, accounting for potential slippage. Each Lot is equal in the scope of works. Bidders will be able to apply for all five Lots but will only be awarded a maximum of three Lots. The planned procurement will follow an Open Competitive Procedure, and the evaluation will use a price-per-quality-point methodology.
