UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Education procured construction works for The Holy Family Catholic School. The requirement covers the design and build or refurbishment of a mainstream primary and nursery school, including early supplier involvement before detailed design and agreement of the final works. The work is associated with construction activity and is being delivered for the Department for Education. The procurement formed part of the Department’s school estate programme and was structured as a two-stage public works contract. The selected supplier is responsible for progressing the requirement from pre-construction services towards the intended design-and-build or refurbishment solution under the agreed construction framework arrangements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective procedure as a non-competitive award under Construction Framework CF25. One completed lot was awarded to Speller Metcalfe on 26 May 2026. The award value is £1.00 million excluding VAT, or £1.20 million including VAT. The contract period runs from 21 August 2026 to 13 August 2029, with a maximum extent date of 14 August 2029. The award covers the estimated amount payable during the Early Supplier Involvement phase; the final works price and expiry date are subject to detailed design and agreement under a JCT Design and Build contract. Renewal and additional-purchase options apply under the PCSA terms.

This award indicates demand for contractors able to deliver education-sector construction through a public works framework, combining pre-construction services with design-and-build or refurbishment delivery. Credible suppliers would need the capacity to manage an early supplier involvement phase, develop detailed designs, and progress into a JCT Design and Build contract for a mainstream primary and nursery school. Relevant experience in school construction or refurbishment, stakeholder coordination, programme management, cost development and construction delivery would be important. The route also points to the value of framework access and the ability to work within Department for Education requirements. A competitor would need sufficient organisational scale and resources to undertake a major school project and manage its transition from pre-construction into works.
