UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

St Ives Town Council has initiated a procurement process for the refurbishment of the St Ives Guildhall, a project set to transform the 1930s concert hall with a construction, refurbishment, and fit-out contract valued at £1.5 million. The process is currently in the award stage, with Symons Construction Limited selected as the supplier. This procurement falls under the industry category of building construction work and operates below the competition threshold using a direct procurement method. Key dates include a scheduled future signature date on 29th June 2026, with the contract period commencing on 1st July 2026 and concluding on 1st March 2027. The project is situated in St. Ives, Cornwall, within the South West of England region (UKK30). This deal underscores St Ives Town Council’s commitment to local construction development through public authority funding.

The refurbishment of St Ives Guildhall presents significant opportunities for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those specialising in building construction work. With the process utilizing a JCT prime cost works contract, the procurement is highly suitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that can offer competitive yet cost-effective solutions for large-scale public facility projects. Businesses in the local area or those looking to expand into the South West of England would especially benefit from engagements in projects of this nature, thereby enhancing their portfolios with public sector partnerships facilitated by sub-central government contracts.
