Summary of the contracting process

Westmorland and Furness Council has completed a public procurement process for building alteration work at Town View Fields Hostel, located in the UKD12 region, specifically Kendal, United Kingdom. The scope of the project involved creating an accessible room and improving the accessibility of shower rooms, alongside minor refurbishments to additional bathrooms. This contract was awarded directly without competition under a 'below threshold' procurement method. The associated contract commenced on 28th July 2025 and concluded by 29th August 2025, with a gross contract value of £45,066. This procurement falls under the 'works' industry category, emphasizing construction work, and is regulated by the UKPGA 2023/54 legal framework.

The awarded tender presents growth opportunities for businesses within the construction industry, particularly those capable of executing building alterations and refurbishments with a focus on accessibility improvements. With TOP NOTCH CONTRACTORS LIMITED securing the contract, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that match similar qualifications and industry capabilities would be well-suited to compete in future opportunities of this nature. The buyer, Westmorland and Furness Council, represents a sub-central government public authority, serving as a potential recurring client for contractors specializing in similar scopes of work. The direct procurement method used suggests that established relationships or prior experience might enhance a company’s ability to win similar contracts.
