Summary of the contracting process

Halton Borough Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Widnes, United Kingdom, initiated a procurement process for refurbishment and alteration works at Grangeway Court, Runcorn. This process involved an open competition under the below-threshold procurement method, focused on building alteration work. The award stage has been completed, with EFT Construction Limited, a Southport-based SME, awarded the contract on 29th May 2026. The active contract period is set from 29th June 2026 to 23rd October 2026, with a project value of £926,879. The initial tendering phase began on 18th December 2025, concluding on 23rd January 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialised in construction work, enabling growth within the refurbishment and alteration domains. The project favours small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs), presenting a viable prospect for such entities to establish or expand their presence in public sector projects. With a high emphasis on price (70%) and quality (30%), businesses with a competitive edge in these areas would be well-suited to engage in similar future tenders. This contract highlights the potential for collaboration within the construction industry and the public sector in the North West of England.
