Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council has completed the procurement process for the replacement of flat roof coverings at Inglewood Junior School located on Arnside Road, Carlisle. This project falls under the industry category of construction work, specifically as part of the Capital Work Framework Cumberland, Lot 1. The tender stage was awarded on 12th June 2026, with the main procurement category being works. The contract, valued at £570,308 (excluding VAT), spans from the 20th of July 2026 to the 1st of September 2027. The project includes replacing the existing felt roof system, conducting localised repairs on retaining walls, and installing bow top fencing around the playground areas. The procurement method was below threshold and unspecified, indicating smaller scale contracts suitable for sub-central government authorities.

This tender provides significant growth opportunities, notably for large-scale construction companies capable of executing comprehensive roof replacement projects and ancillary site works. Businesses equipped to handle summer-long projects in educational environments would find this contract particularly aligning with their expertise, given the planned work span over two summer adjournments in 2026 and 2027. Thomas Armstrong (Construction) Limited, a large enterprise, was awarded the contract; however, similar firms or those wishing to expand into sizeable infrastructure maintenance and refurbishment within government contracts could position themselves well for future opportunities or subsequent phases under such frameworks.
