With the OJEU reference 2019/S 187-453493, this project focuses on construction work under the industry classification CPV 45000000. It has now reached the award stage with R H Fulwood selected as the contractor. Located in the UK, the contract for the construction of 39 new pods across three sites and related works was signed on 21 May 2025. This follows a selective procurement method through a restricted procedure, beginning with a mini competition under the E N Procure DPS for Installation, Responsive Repairs, and Maintenance. The evaluation was concluded based on a 40% price and 60% quality assessment, ensuring a comprehensive vetting process.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and project management, particularly those capable of handling projects with a strong emphasis on quality evaluation, which accounts for social value. With a budget of £5 million, businesses adept in Modern Methods of Construction and System-Built approaches may find opportunities in providing innovative solutions for the prefabricated pod units. The collaboration between the buyer and the project team emphasises the need for cooperative design review and modification, offering additional growth avenues for businesses that can align with these objectives. Large-scale enterprises with a proven track record in similar public sector projects, like R H Fulwood, are particularly well-suited for such opportunities.
