UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rochdale Borough Council procured fit-out works for the welfare block at Unit 4, Southgate Industrial Estate. The requirement is construction work associated with completing or adapting welfare facilities within an industrial estate setting. Delivery was in the Rochdale area of Greater Manchester. The council was the buying organisation. The procurement covered one package of works, rather than separate service or supply categories, and was aimed at a completed physical building fit-out. This is relevant to building contractors, fit-out specialists and construction businesses with experience delivering welfare facilities or comparable commercial premises works for public-sector or local-authority clients. The named requirement indicates a focused project for a single industrial-estate unit, rather than a programme covering multiple sites or a long-term construction framework.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to THOMAS KERSHAW BUILDERS LIMITED. The contract was signed on 17 July 2026 and runs from 20 July 2026 to 16 October 2026. Its value is £76,783 excluding VAT and £92,139.60 including VAT. The tender description stated £86,453.28, while the signed contract records the awarded value above. The contract is active. Rochdale Borough Council used a limited procurement method under the Procurement Act 2023. The contract covers the single welfare-block fit-out package. The recorded outcome identifies the selected supplier and confirms that the requirement has progressed beyond tendering into contract delivery.

This award provides a clear indication of Rochdale Borough Council’s demand for small, focused construction projects involving welfare facilities in commercial or industrial premises. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical building and fit-out capability, the capacity to complete a self-contained project within a defined delivery window, and experience coordinating the trades needed to bring welfare accommodation into usable condition. The successful business is identified as an SME, suggesting that this type of council construction requirement can be delivered by a smaller contractor rather than only by a major national firm. Relevant suppliers are likely to be local or regional builders, commercial fit-out contractors and firms able to manage construction works directly for a public authority.
