Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council commissioned building adaptation works for the new care and support provision at Oldland Common. The work covers additional adaptations identified through assessments by relevant professionals, with the purpose of making the buildings safe and appropriate for service users. The procurement is categorised as works and includes refurbishment activity. Delivery is associated with the Oldland Common site in the Bristol area. The council is the buying organisation, while the housing provider involved in the provision is Elim Housing Association. This requirement is therefore relevant to contractors able to undertake building alterations and refurbishment in or around care, support or housing environments, particularly where works must respond to professional assessments and service-user needs.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded directly without competition under a below-threshold procedure. One award was made to Elim Housing Association on 1 February 2026, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 1 February 2026 and runs from 1 February 2026 to 31 January 2027. Its value is £100,000 excluding VAT and £120,000 including VAT. The contract status is active. The procurement has one completed lot covering the building adaptation works. The published outcome identifies refurbishment works as the awarded activity. No evaluation weighting or award criteria are stated in the procurement information, so the recorded route was a direct award rather than a competitive tender.

This award is useful market evidence for contractors providing building adaptations and refurbishment for supported housing, care facilities or similar service environments. A credible future supplier would need practical capability to alter existing buildings, manage refurbishment work safely and deliver adaptations arising from assessments by relevant professionals. Experience of working around service users, housing providers and care or support operations would be commercially relevant, because the stated purpose is to make buildings safe and appropriate for their users. Suppliers should also be able to undertake a defined package of works and demonstrate dependable delivery for a public-sector housing and care-related client. Elim Housing Association’s involvement indicates demand from specialist supported-housing provision rather than a general construction requirement.
