Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council is procuring refurbishment works at Church Farm, Newmarket Road, Stow-cum-Quy, Cambridge, CB25 9AQ. The requirement is construction and repair and maintenance work associated with refurbishing the farm premises. The site forms part of the council’s farm estate, described as covering 34,000 acres and supporting 160 farm tenants, making it the largest council-owned farm estate of its kind in England and Wales. The work will be delivered at Church Farm in Cambridgeshire. This is a works contract rather than a supply-only or professional services opportunity, and should suit building contractors and firms providing property repair, maintenance or refurbishment services.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single-lot procurement, with an estimated value of £50,000 excluding VAT and £60,000 including VAT. The deadline for enquiries was 24 September 2026 at 17:00, and the tender submission deadline was 25 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 13 October 2026 to 31 December 2026. Bids are submitted electronically through ProContract, and electronic submission is allowed. Evaluation is weighted 80% to price and 20% to quality. The procurement also provides for an electronic auction. The opportunity is reserved for organisations located in Cambridgeshire, and the lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized construction, refurbishment, repair and maintenance contractors based in Cambridgeshire. Bidders will need to provide evidence of CHAS accreditation or an equivalent accreditation, so firms with established health and safety pre-qualification arrangements are well placed to compete. The work is suitable for contractors able to organise and deliver a defined refurbishment project at an operational farm estate, including the labour, supervision, materials and site management needed for construction and maintenance works. Businesses accustomed to public-sector tendering, electronic submissions and price-led evaluation should find the procurement format familiar. An open morning has been arranged, offering prospective contractors an opportunity to inspect or understand the site before bidding.
