Summary of the contracting process

Westminster City Council has recently awarded a contract for supplementary works at Westminster Cathedral School, focusing on boiler replacement, damp proofing of exposed brickwork, and internal improvements at the College Park Special School and Short Breaks Service in Pimlico, London. Issued on 12th September 2025, the contract was signed the same day and is expected to run until 25th November 2025. The procurement is categorised under 'Building construction work' in the industry category of works. This process entailed a limited tender approach, as it was below the threshold, inviting proposals from five pre-selected contractors. The buying organisation's procurement process is already in the 'Award' stage, ensuring selections are in their conclusive phases.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction and building maintenance, particularly those specialising in boiler systems and damp proofing solutions. It is an ideal prospect for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who can offer competitive bids and have experience with school or similar institutional projects. With a detailed specification for necessary improvements, qualified businesses have the potential to secure future contracts based on their performance with Westminster City Council, a reputable sub-central government public authority.
