Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge City Council is planning a public procurement process for DCM Remedial Works, aimed at addressing issues such as damp, condensation, and mould through various construction activities including waterproofing, plastering, and building completion work. This procurement falls under the industry category of works and will be conducted in the region of UKH12, within the United Kingdom. The Council intends to use an open procurement method, with the current stage marked as planning. Key dates to note include a future notice expected by 14th August 2026, and the contract is scheduled to commence on 15th September 2026, continuing until 14th September 2031, with a possibility of extension until 2033. The procurement has been deemed above threshold with an estimated contract value of £24,000,000 gross.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction and building works, particularly those specialising in damp proofing, plastering, and building refurbishment. The open procedure favours transparency and wide participation, making it accessible for a range of companies, including SMEs that meet the suitability criteria. Firms with a proven track record in handling large-scale projects in the public sector are especially well-suited to compete, given the scale and scope of the work. Engaging in this project could enhance business credibility and expand market presence by collaborating with a reputable government entity like Cambridge City Council.
