Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the Isles of Scilly has issued a tender for the construction of the new Family Belonging and Inclusion Hub located at the Carn Gwaval Well-being Centre on St. Mary's. This public procurement opportunity falls under the construction industry category, specifically classified as "Construction work." The procurement is at the tender stage, with submissions required by 3rd April 2026 at 17:00 BST. The project is grant-funded, and the construction must be completed by September 2026. This open competition is below the threshold, offering a significant contract value estimated at £1.1 million, with tenders evaluated on a 70:30 price-to-quality ratio, including a social value component.

This tender represents a considerable growth opportunity for construction businesses, particularly those demonstrating expertise in building community-focused facilities. It is especially suitable for SMEs due to the reserved participation clauses. Companies specialising in enhancing social value through their projects, and with experience in similar works, would be well-positioned to compete. The Council of the Isles of Scilly is the buying organisation, looking for competent and qualified builders to realise a hub focused on wellbeing and inclusion for children and young people. Businesses that can deliver high-quality construction while adhering to tight project timelines will benefit from engaging in this procurement process.
