Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council commissioned roofing, plant room and fire door works at Carisbrooke Primary School. The construction work covers three elements of the school’s buildings: roof works, work to the plant room and replacement or installation of fire doors. Delivery is at the school on the Isle of Wight. The requirement was treated as a single lot, rather than separated into distinct packages, so the selected supplier was responsible for the combined scope. The work is relevant to building contractors with capabilities spanning roofing and building-services plant room work, alongside fire door works, and able to manage delivery at a primary school site.

The procurement is complete and a contract was awarded to M.C.M. Construction Limited. The Council used an open below-threshold competition. The original estimated value was £300,000 excluding VAT (£360,000 including VAT); the contract value is £339,027 excluding VAT (£406,832 including VAT). The contract was signed on 24 July 2026 and runs from 27 July to 31 August 2026. The tender deadline was 19 May 2026. There was one lot, marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation weighted price at 70%, quality at 20% and social value at 10%. Quality covered project planning and management of the supply chain and subcontractors, each weighted at 10%.

This award shows that the Council buys combined school building packages covering roofing, plant room work and fire doors, rather than procurement of just one of these trades. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to demonstrate capability across the full scope, or a reliable supply chain and subcontractor-management approach that brings the necessary trades together. Project planning and the management of subcontractors were explicit parts of the quality assessment, alongside social value; price carried the greatest evaluation weight. The opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs and was awarded through open competition below the applicable threshold, indicating a route accessible to smaller building contractors as well as larger firms. Contractors with experience coordinating work on school premises and delivering several construction disciplines within a short programme would be well placed to compete.
