Summary of the contracting process

Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking a works contractor to refurbish classrooms at Laticzone in Oldham. The requirement is construction and refurbishment work, including strip-out and demolition, internal partitions, fitting-out and joinery, mechanical and electrical installations, external works, and kitchen installation. The procurement covers one refurbishment package and is intended for delivery at the Laticzone site in Oldham. It will suit contractors able to manage a coordinated building refurbishment involving multiple trades, from initial demolition through internal finishing, building services, external works and kitchen fitting. The council is the buyer and will appoint a contractor to carry out the complete works scope rather than supply goods or standalone professional services.

The procurement has reached tender: Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council invited offers through an open below-threshold competition. Questions could be submitted until 31 July 2026 at 23:59. Bids were due by 7 August 2026 at 12:00 and electronic submission was allowed. The contract is scheduled to run from 15 September 2026 to 15 November 2026. Its estimated value is £140,000 excluding VAT, or £168,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Bidders must have annual turnover of at least £100,000 in at least one of the past three years. Evaluation is based on quality at 50%, price at 40% and social value at 10%.

This opportunity is suited to small and medium-sized construction contractors, as the lot is identified as suitable for SMEs. Businesses should be able to act as the principal works contractor and coordinate demolition, partitioning, fit-out, joinery, mechanical and electrical services, external works and kitchen installation within a single refurbishment project. Relevant experience in delivering classroom or comparable occupied-building refurbishment would help suppliers demonstrate quality, although the published requirement specifically sets a minimum annual turnover test rather than naming particular accreditations. Contractors with dependable multi-trade teams, competent project management, supply-chain coordination and the capacity to complete interconnected building works will be well placed to compete. The evaluation also rewards social value, so bidders should be ready to explain deliverable community or social benefits alongside their technical approach and price.
