Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council commissioned the creation of an Integrated Sexual Health Clinic on the ground floor of the Civic Centre in Carlisle. The works involved converting existing space into a suitable clinic, including further subdivision, replacement of finishes and associated mechanical and electrical services. This is a construction works requirement, with the activity delivered in Carlisle. The procurement formed part of the Cumberland Capital Works Framework and concerned its first lot. The buyer is Cumberland Council, the sub-central public authority serving the area. The requirement is therefore relevant to building contractors and construction firms able to undertake internal conversion and refurbishment works, coordinate building services and deliver a completed clinical facility within an occupied civic-centre setting where site constraints and service integration may be important.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Thomas Armstrong (Construction) Limited on 16 June 2026. The award value was £562,397 excluding VAT, or £674,876 including VAT. The contract was signed on 17 July 2026 and runs from 18 July to 26 December 2026. The procedure was a below-threshold procurement, with the specific method recorded as unknown. The tender was evaluated as construction works and was divided into one lot, which was completed. The award is active and the contract is active. The successful supplier is a large construction company. The published outcome provides the commercial benchmark for this single Carlisle clinic conversion rather than a wider framework-wide value.

For a supplier assessing future Cumberland Council work, this award demonstrates demand for mid-sized public-sector internal conversion and refurbishment projects, delivered through the council’s capital works route. A credible competitor would need to manage the subdivision and reconfiguration of existing accommodation, replace internal finishes and coordinate associated mechanical and electrical works as one integrated construction package. Relevant capability includes planning and controlling multiple trades, working accurately within an existing civic building and delivering spaces suitable for a clinical service. Firms with comparable public-sector refurbishment experience, dependable supply-chain management and the capacity to complete a defined package of building and building-services works would be well placed to compete when a similar requirement returns. The successful business’s scale also indicates that capacity for coordinated delivery matters.
