UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of London Corporation procured a principal contractor for Year 2 of the Guildhall School of Music & Drama’s five-year cyclical works programme. The call-off works cover refurbishment of the reception area and other localised improvements to the building’s condition and layout. This is construction work for a school building, classified under CPV 45214200. The requirement forms part of a single-supplier framework intended to deliver Years 2 to 5 of the wider programme. The buyer is The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London. Delivery is in the City of London, United Kingdom, at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded under a below-threshold framework route using a selective procedure. The process was non-competitive for this call-off and consisted of one lot. Team Projects Limited was awarded the contract on 18 August 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and runs from 18 August 2026 to 15 March 2027. Its value is £2,095,732.13 excluding VAT, or £2,514,878.56 including VAT. The contract is active. The award covers the single lot and the construction works described for the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

This award indicates demand from the City of London Corporation for principal contractors able to deliver substantial planned refurbishment and condition-improvement works in an operating music and drama school environment. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need construction delivery capability, experience managing reception refurbishments and localised building improvements, and the capacity to act as the main contractor for a multi-year cyclical works programme. The framework route and single-supplier arrangement show that the buyer values a contractor able to take responsibility for coordinated delivery across successive years, rather than a specialist providing only an isolated trade package. Relevant experience in education or other complex public buildings would help demonstrate suitability for this buyer’s requirement.
