Summary of the contracting process

Barwick and Stoford Parish Council is seeking a main contractor to build a new single-storey village hall, with attic storage, and football changing facilities at the Recreation Ground, Whitcross, Barwick, near Yeovil, Somerset. The works cover construction, utilities, external areas, and access and parking. The hall is intended for community groups, council activities, wellbeing, small events, family programmes and local services; the changing rooms will serve teams and officials using the adjacent football pitch. Planning permission has been granted. This is a construction works opportunity (CPV 45000000), with delivery at the named recreation ground in Somerset.

The buyer invited tenders through a below-threshold, single-stage open competition. The process reached tender stage; submissions were to be made in hard copy to the Parish Council in Yeovil. The deadline for enquiries was 30 September 2026 at 17:00, and the tender submission deadline was 9 October 2026 at 17:00. The contract period is 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2028. The estimated value is £800,000 excluding VAT (£960,000 including VAT). There is one lot, covering the whole project. Evaluation follows a traditional single-stage process, with a stated preference for local suppliers within a 50-mile radius, including Somerset, Devon and Dorset. The contract is a JCT Intermediate Contract, with a Contractor’s Design Portion for specified elements.

This opportunity suits a main building contractor able to deliver a complete community building project, coordinating construction with utilities, external works, site access and parking. Relevant experience would include village halls or other flexible public or community facilities, alongside changing accommodation for sports teams and officials. The contractor must be able to work to the project’s approved plans and technical information, including elements where contractor design applies, and manage delivery across the full site scope. Firms based within 50 miles, particularly in Somerset, Devon or Dorset, are favoured in the stated evaluation approach; this is a preference rather than a participation restriction. The scale and single-lot structure point to a supplier able to take responsibility for the project as a whole.
