UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rochdale Borough Council commissioned building works to upgrade the outdoor canopy area at Ashfield Valley Primary School on Newbarn Lane, Rochdale, OL11 1TA. The requirement is a school-building construction project focused on improving an existing outdoor building or canopy area. The contracting authority is Rochdale Borough Council, and delivery is at the primary school in Rochdale. The work sits within the construction sector and is relevant to contractors undertaking school premises improvements, external structures, canopy upgrades and associated building works. The procurement covered one requirement rather than multiple separately described packages, with the works relating specifically to Ashfield Valley Primary School and its outdoor canopy area.

The procurement has completed and the contract was awarded to F.S. Moult & Son Ltd, a Manchester-based small business. Rochdale Borough Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The award date and contract signing date were 23 July 2026. The contract runs from 23 July 2026 to 2 September 2026. Its value is £74,098.40 excluding VAT, or £88,918.08 including VAT. The award covers the single school-building works requirement. The contract is active, while the tender itself is recorded as complete. The stated procurement method was limited competition below the applicable threshold; the available information does not set out a separate quality, price or other evaluation weighting.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Rochdale Borough Council for focused construction work at a primary school, involving the upgrade of an outdoor canopy area rather than a large, multi-site programme. The selected supplier was an SME, indicating that a smaller contractor can be credible for this type and scale of council school-improvement project. Relevant competitors would need practical experience delivering construction or refurbishment works in school environments, including outdoor structures and canopy areas, together with the ability to manage site activity safely around an operating education setting. Firms with a track record of completing comparable school-building upgrades for local authorities would be well placed when this buyer next requires similar work.
