Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire West and Chester Council has completed the procurement process for the demolition of the Oasis Centre in Ellesmere Port, categorised under the 'works' industry, specifically focusing on demolition and site preparation. The procurement was conducted under a limited competition method, below the threshold, and the contract was awarded to J. FREELEY LIMITED. The contract commenced on 15th September 2025 and will conclude on 21st November 2025, with a total gross contract value of £72,272.40 GBP. This process marks the 'award' stage with the legal basis founded in the UK Public Contract Legislation (2023/54).

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in demolition and site clearance work. SMEs, in particular, may find prospects for growth, as demonstrated by the successful award to J. FREELEY LIMITED, an SME based in Manchester. Enterprises with strengths in efficient site preparation and clearance, especially those capable of undertaking projects below the competitive threshold, would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. Additionally, organisations with a focus on acquiring contracts with local governments will find potential in responding to similar procurements from sub-central public authorities like Cheshire West and Chester Council.
