Summary of the contracting process

Cornwall Council is procuring construction works to refurbish the Barrow Centre at Mount Edgcumbe in Cornwall. The project follows fire damage sustained by the accommodation block on 4 February 2025. The requirement is classified as construction work and covers the refurbishment of the affected centre. The work is arranged as a single package and is to be delivered at Mount Edgcumbe. Cornwall Council is the buying organisation and also acts as a central purchasing body. This opportunity is therefore relevant to construction businesses able to undertake building refurbishment and repair works, particularly where the work involves reinstating accommodation or other facilities affected by fire damage.

The process reached tender: Cornwall Council invited offers through an open procedure. Bids had to be submitted electronically in English. The buyer set the tender deadline at 12:00 on 11 September 2026. Bids were required to remain valid for 90 days. The planned evaluation and public bid opening were scheduled from 12:00 on 11 September 2026. The contract period is 720 days. There is one package of work, with variants not permitted and no renewal or additional-purchase option. Offers are evaluated equally on commercial considerations, weighted at 50%, and quality, weighted at 50%. The procurement concerns works rather than goods or services.

This opportunity suits construction contractors with the capability to deliver refurbishment and repair works to an existing public facility following fire damage. Relevant businesses are likely to include building contractors and firms experienced in coordinating construction work across an accommodation or centre refurbishment project. Suppliers should be able to commit the workforce, project management and delivery capacity needed for a 720-day contract programme. The equal weighting for commercial and quality considerations means bidders need to present both a competitive offer and a credible approach to delivering the required works. The single-package structure may suit a principal contractor able to take responsibility for the overall refurbishment rather than bidding only for a narrowly defined specialist element.
