Summary of the contracting process

Northern Trains Limited has awarded a contract for the "Doncaster Traincrew - Accommodation Improvements" project, falling under the works category within the construction industry. The project is located in the United Kingdom, specifically in region UKE21, and involves the internal refurbishment of a building to improve facilities for train crew and management teams. The procurement, managed under a limited procedure due to its below threshold status, has reached the awarding stage, with the final award published on 22nd October 2025. The contract, valued at approximately £1.1 million, is set to span from 23rd October 2025 to 31st March 2026, offering significant work opportunities within the sector.

This award presents growth opportunities for businesses involved in the construction industry, especially those capable of handling office refurbishments and facility upgrades. Large construction firms like Colt Construction Ltd, which succeeded in securing the contract, are particularly suited to such projects. While there were no small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the final bidding stage, the project demands expertise in utilities and refurbishment, making it an appealing prospect for firms with relevant experience. By engaging in such tenders, businesses can expand their portfolios and strengthen their relationships with public sector buyers like Northern Trains Limited.
