Summary of the contracting process

The recently concluded procurement process for the "Kennet Side Refurbishment Works" was managed by Reading Borough Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Reading, United Kingdom. The project focused on remedial works to install acoustic flooring in two flats to reduce noise transmission. This procurement fell under the 'works' category and employed an 'open' method for below-threshold competition. The tender period concluded on 9th July 2025, and the contract was awarded to Pilon Limited on 16th September 2025, with the contract period running from 4th November 2025 to 30th December 2025.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in refurbishment work, particularly those adept at acoustic improvements. Large-scale suppliers like Pilon Limited will find such contracts appealing, given the substantial projects and open competition model. Moreover, the contract’s valuation, initially estimated at £65,000 but awarded for £64,800, highlights the fiscal opportunities within smaller scale public works that can significantly enhance supplier portfolios while fostering relationships with key public sector clients like Reading Borough Council. Companies demonstrating strong financial management, effective project delivery, and compliance with health and safety standards are well-suited to succeed in such tenders.
