UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) has concluded the contracting process for the "Fitzharrys Estate Footpath Repairs" project. This procurement, essentially a direct procurement method conducted below the threshold without competition, was aimed at addressing the deteriorated and uneven footpaths within the Fitzharrys Estate in Oxfordshire, to eliminate safety hazards and mitigate reputational risks. The award for this works contract, valued at £73,552.61 exclusive of VAT, was made to Drayton Construction Limited, a small to medium enterprise (SME) based in Steventon. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract period running from 4th August 2025 to 30th September 2025.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs specializing in road repair and maintenance works. Firms with expertise in resurfacing and roadworks within the Oxfordshire region could stand to benefit from the infrastructure projects managed by sub-central government authorities like UKAEA. Participating in such tenders not only aids in local business development but also strengthens ties with key public-sector organisations, increasing potential for future collaborations in similar fields.
