Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council is seeking a contractor for building fabric improvements at Gomond Street, Hereford. The works comprise replacing glazing over stairwells to mirror the existing installation and replacing balustrading with matching materials, but at a new height. The balustrading must provide safeguarding that meets current building regulations. The requirement is construction work focused on improving and adapting existing building fabric, with the finished elements designed to harmonise with the surrounding built form. Delivery is in Hereford. The contracting authority is Herefordshire Council, a local public authority. This opportunity will suit firms able to undertake building alteration works while carefully matching existing glazing, balustrading and surrounding architectural materials.

The procurement has reached tender: Herefordshire Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It covers one lot with an estimated value of £100,000 excluding VAT, or £120,000 including VAT. The contract is scheduled to run from 2 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The deadline for submitting enquiries was 2 September 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline was 11 September 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submission is allowed. Bids will be evaluated on price, weighted at 60%, and quality, weighted at 40%. The contract is below the applicable threshold and is categorised as construction work. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits building contractors with practical experience of fabric improvement and alteration works in existing buildings. Relevant capability includes removing and replacing stairwell glazing, producing or installing balustrading, and working accurately from existing details so that new components mirror or match the current building. Suppliers should be able to design or deliver balustrading that provides safeguarding in line with current building regulations, while selecting and using materials that harmonise with the surrounding built form. The work calls for the coordination of specialist glazing and metalwork or similar building trades, careful site execution, and quality control across the installation. Its SME suitability makes it relevant to smaller contractors with the necessary technical competence and delivery capacity.
