Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned building works at Crofton Anne Dale Junior School to create a specialist resource provision for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities. The scope covers internal alterations for a resource-provision classroom, one-to-one calm room, group room, office, staff facilities and pupil toilets. Works include new stud walls, doors, flooring, ceilings, decorations and complete mechanical and electrical services, including heat-recovery ventilation. External works comprise a new door and window, a secure timber-fenced play area with gate, play equipment and play surfaces, associated landscaping with new trees and shrubs, and reconfigured parking and pupil drop-off spaces. Delivery is in Hampshire, within the UKJ3 area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a competitive, selective below-threshold procedure under a framework agreement. Hampshire County Council signed the contract with R V Dart & Son (Builders) Limited on 15 July 2026. The award covers one completed lot and the supplier holds an active award. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 4 December 2026. Its value is £369,152 excluding VAT and £442,982 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the framework’s competitive award process. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. The contract is for works rather than goods or standalone professional services.

This procurement demonstrates demand for small-to-medium building contractors able to deliver occupied-school or education-site alterations combining internal fit-out, building services and external works. Relevant capability includes forming partitioned teaching and support rooms, installing doors, ceilings, floor finishes and decorations, and delivering new mechanical and electrical services with heat-recovery ventilation. Competitors would also need to manage secure outdoor play areas, timber fencing and gates, play equipment and safety surfaces, planting and other landscaping, together with changes to parking and pupil drop-off arrangements. The requirement favours a contractor able to coordinate multiple trades, manage safeguarding-sensitive school environments and complete a compact, integrated construction project through a competitive framework route.
