UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Rest Pod for Windsor Fire Station" project has been concluded by the Royal Berkshire Fire Authority, located in Reading, UK (RG31 7SD). This public procurement, under the industry category of works, specifically involved site preparation and building installation. The process reached the award stage, with McAvoy Rental and Sales Ltd securing the contract. The procurement was carried out as a limited competition due to being below the threshold, following the Authority's Contract Standing Order for three quotes, and was part of the Strategic Asset Investment Framework to enhance facilities at Windsor Fire Station. Key dates include the contract signing on 24 November 2025 and its active period from 25 November 2025 to 31 March 2026.

This tender offers growth opportunities for businesses specialising in site preparation and building installation, particularly those that can engage in projects under limited competition guidelines. While the contract has already been awarded to McAvoy Rental and Sales Ltd, similar tenders by public authorities like the Royal Berkshire Fire Authority could benefit small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the construction and facilities management sector, especially those equipped to handle public authority projects and interested in contributing to initiatives that promote equality, diversity, and inclusion. Such projects can enhance a firm's portfolio by demonstrating capability in executing infrastructure enhancements for key clients.
