Summary of the contracting process

The Defence Infrastructure Organisation is procuring refurbishment works for Building 260 at BATSUB in Belize. The requirement is a single building refurbishment project, covering the works needed to improve or renew the existing facility. Delivery is in Belize, so suppliers will need to operate there or arrange the necessary personnel, materials, equipment and logistics for the site. This is a works contract managed by a central government defence infrastructure organisation. The opportunity is relevant to principal building contractors and refurbishment specialists able to manage construction delivery in an overseas defence-related setting, including the coordination of trades, site activities and completion of the refurbished building.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is one lot with an estimated value of £450,000 including gross value, and the contract is planned to run from 2 November 2026 to 1 September 2027. Questions or enquiries were due by 11:00 on 9 September 2026, and offers were due by 11:00 on 14 September 2026. Electronic submission was allowed. The award basis is described as a Value for Money Index, so bidders should review the procurement documents to understand how value for money is calculated and how the overall offer will be assessed.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized enterprises as well as established refurbishment contractors with the capacity to deliver a complete building project rather than a single isolated trade package. Suppliers with experience in refurbishment, construction management, site coordination and the delivery of works in operational or defence-related environments are likely to be well placed to compete. The overseas location makes mobilisation, supply-chain planning, workforce arrangements, equipment, materials and project logistics important commercial considerations. Contractors able to manage these practical requirements in Belize, coordinate specialist subcontractors where needed and demonstrate reliable delivery of a building refurbishment should consider the opportunity. The requirement is focused and single-site, making it potentially suitable for a capable regional, specialist or SME contractor.
