Summary of the contracting process

Plymouth City Council commissioned the refurbishment and renovation of Mount Edgcumbe Garden Battery, together with associated works. This is a construction and building refurbishment requirement, covering the overhaul of an existing site rather than the supply of standalone goods or routine services. The work is delivered in Plymouth. The procurement involved Plymouth City Council as the buyer, with project management support from Myles Clough Management Services Limited and architectural input from Place Architects Limited. The requirement was treated as one package of works, covering the Garden Battery refurbishment and its associated activities. It may therefore be relevant to construction contractors with experience delivering coordinated refurbishment projects and working alongside project managers and architects on public-sector building works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. TEC Construction (Holdings) Limited was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 2 July 2026 and runs from 6 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. Its value is £588,829.93 excluding VAT, or £706,595.92 including VAT. The award covers the refurbishment works associated with Mount Edgcumbe Garden Battery. This was a single-lot procurement, and the lot is complete. The published outcome records the award as active and the contract as active. The available procurement details identify the procedure and route to market, but do not set out a separate scored evaluation breakdown or award weighting.

This award is a useful indication of Plymouth City Council’s demand for substantial, coordinated refurbishment and renovation works delivered by a construction contractor. A credible future competitor would need the capacity to manage a sizeable building project and complete associated works within a defined delivery programme. Relevant capability is likely to include refurbishment, renovation, construction planning, site coordination, subcontractor management and delivery against architectural and project-management information. Experience of working with public-sector clients and professional advisers would strengthen a supplier’s position, particularly where the contractor must respond to tender clarifications and manage delivery through to completion. The incumbent is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable smaller construction business rather than only a major national contractor.
