Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office, a central government public authority located in Exeter, recently completed a procurement process titled "Remedial works Autosonde Herstmonceux." This contract falls under the works category in the construction industry, specifically CPV 45000000, and involved direct procurement without competition, given its below-threshold value. The project required remedial construction work across several regions in the United Kingdom, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK. The contract award was finalised on 23rd October 2025, with work scheduled to conclude by the end of November 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the construction sector, particularly those experienced in specialised or remedial construction projects. The contract was awarded to GRS Building Services South-West, a local SME, highlighting the potential for smaller businesses to secure government contracts through direct procurement methods. Companies focusing on building services and remedial construction, especially those operating in southern regions of the United Kingdom, could find similar tenders beneficial for business growth and portfolio expansion.
