UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

St Helens Council procured works to construct and install fire doors at Garswood Primary School. The requirement covers fire doors and associated primary-school construction work, with the purpose of improving fire protection within the school premises. Delivery is at Garswood Primary School in the St Helens area. This is a public-sector building works requirement rather than a supply-only opportunity: relevant businesses are those able to undertake fire-door installation and the associated construction activities in an operating or planned primary-school environment. The buyer is St Helens Council, a local public authority. The procurement was arranged as a single requirement covering the school’s fire-door works.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. St Helens Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the limited procurement method, with one lot. The contract was awarded to LINK CONTRACTING SERVICES LIMITED, based in Wigan, and the contract was signed on 30 July 2026. Its value is £33,611 including VAT, in GBP. The contract period runs from 30 July 2026 to 28 August 2026. The contract is recorded as active. The requirement was treated under a concession special regime. The selected supplier is responsible for the awarded fire-door works at Garswood Primary School.

This award indicates a defined requirement for specialist fire-door construction and installation in a primary-school setting, delivered through a local-authority procurement route. Competitors seeking similar work with St Helens Council would need practical capability in fire-door works, construction-site management and safe delivery in an education environment. Credibility would be strengthened by demonstrable experience completing comparable school or public-building projects, understanding fire-safety requirements and coordinating work around the needs of pupils, staff and school operations. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist contractor rather than only a large national construction business. Firms with complementary building and fire-protection skills may therefore be well placed for comparable requirements.
