Summary of the contracting process

North Northamptonshire Council procured refurbishment works for the toilets at Alfred Lord Tennyson. The requirement is classified as building construction work and covers works rather than supplies or professional services. The named buyer is North Northamptonshire Council, based at The Corby Cube in Corby. Delivery addresses span England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The procurement therefore concerns a council refurbishment project with a broad England-wide delivery classification, although the title identifies Alfred Lord Tennyson as the specific site or facility. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are building contractors able to carry out toilet refurbishment and associated construction works for a local authority.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed. The contract was awarded to IGLOO CONTRACTORS LTD on 8 July 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. Its value is £144,029.17 excluding VAT, or £172,835 gross. The contract period runs from 8 July 2026 to 11 September 2026, with a maximum extent date of 31 October 2026. The contract is active and includes an option for additional works associated with the refurbishment. IGLOO CONTRACTORS LTD is the selected supplier. The data identifies the procurement as works and building construction, but does not provide a separate published breakdown of evaluation criteria or scoring.

This award is useful market evidence for building contractors specialising in public-sector refurbishment, toilet renovations and associated construction works. The buyer used a below-threshold limited competition, so businesses seeking similar council work would need to be able to respond through a restricted invitation route rather than relying only on open tender searches. A credible competitor would need practical delivery capacity for a defined refurbishment project, the ability to work to a local-authority contract, and sufficient resources to complete construction activity within a short programme. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that this scale of council works can be delivered by a smaller contractor. Firms with demonstrable refurbishment experience, reliable site management, competent trades and capacity for additional associated works would be well placed when this requirement returns.
