UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bridgend County Borough Council procured construction works for a changing pavilion at Pencoed Primary School in Pencoed. The project involves transporting and installing pre-owned, single-use steel container units held at Bryncethin Depot, positioning them on a steel frame, and constructing mass concrete foundations and walls to a structural engineer’s design. The units are to be permanently fixed together and fitted out as changing rooms, a plant room and stores. The works also include mechanical and electrical installations and service connections from the school to the pavilion site. This is a building and specialist installation opportunity for a principal contractor able to coordinate structural, building services and modular or container-based construction works for a school setting.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Manning Construction Ltd following an invitation-only, below-threshold limited competition. The award was made on 3 August 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract period runs from 10 August to 16 October 2026. Its value is £214,950.65 excluding VAT, or £257,940.78 including VAT. There was one completed lot. The tender used a price cap of £220,000 excluding VAT, with bids above that amount subject to immediate disqualification. The contract form is the JCT 2016 Minor Works Building Contract. Participation required bidders to hold at least Bronze membership of Constructionline and certification from Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP).

This award indicates a requirement for a small or medium-sized construction contractor able to deliver a compact, time-limited school construction project through coordinated site delivery. A credible competitor would need experience managing prefabricated steel or modular units, including transport, lifting or positioning, permanent fixing, steel framing and concrete foundations and walls. Capability should extend to fitting out changing rooms, plant rooms and stores, and coordinating mechanical, electrical and utility service provisions with existing school infrastructure. Constructionline registration at Bronze level and SSIP certification were mandatory for this procurement, so comparable evidence of supply-chain assurance and health and safety competence would be important when pursuing similar work for this council. Familiarity with the JCT 2016 Minor Works Building Contract would also be relevant.
