Summary of the contracting process

Gov Facility Services Ltd procured various wood works as building works for prison facilities. The requirement is classified as prison building construction work, covering activity at facilities in the United Kingdom. The buyer is a public-sector facilities services organisation responsible for managing this requirement. The selected supplier, SSH BUILDING SERVICES LTD, is based in Portsmouth and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The work is therefore relevant to businesses that provide carpentry, joinery, timber repairs, fitting, refurbishment or associated building services in secure or custodial environments. It concerns practical construction and maintenance work rather than the supply of standalone timber products, with the scope described as various wood works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly without competition under a below-threshold procedure. One lot was completed. SSH BUILDING SERVICES LTD was selected on 17 August 2026 for £35,325.60 excluding VAT, or £42,390.72 including VAT. The contract period runs from 27 August 2026 to 30 September 2027. The award includes an option for additional services. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 17 August 2026. The published outcome identifies the requirement as works and links it to prison building construction. The evaluation route was a direct award rather than a competitive tender, so the opportunity provides evidence of the buyer’s purchasing route and the scale of this individual requirement.

For a future requirement of this type, credible suppliers would need practical capability in carpentry, joinery and timber construction or repair, together with the capacity to work in prison or other secure-facility settings. Experience of building works in occupied, controlled or operational sites would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to manage site access, security procedures, health and safety, quality control and coordination with a facilities-management client. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that a specialist smaller contractor can satisfy this kind of requirement. Businesses with a Portsmouth or wider United Kingdom operating base, suitably skilled tradespeople and the capacity to deliver varied wood-work packages for custodial estates would be well placed to monitor similar purchasing by Gov Facility Services Ltd.
