UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Caerphilly County Borough Council is procuring building works at Blackwood Primary School in Blackwood: renewal of the canteen’s flat roof covering and replacement of windows. The works include removing and safely storing electrical services, CCTV, signage and aerials, then refitting them; raising roof upstands for the new covering; and installing the new windows. The roof specification is Alumasc or an approved equivalent. The contractor must provide fixed scaffolding without blocking entrances or emergency exits, with suitable netting and fan protection to maintain safe access. Heras fencing is required around all work areas to prevent unauthorised access. This is a construction and roofing requirement for a school building, bought by the council for delivery at the school.

The process reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with electronic submission allowed through its Proactis supplier portal. Questions had to be submitted through the portal messaging system by 14 September 2026 at 12:00; tenders were due by 16 September 2026 at 12:00. The single contract lot is scheduled to run from 26 October to 20 November 2026. Its estimated value is £70,000 excluding VAT, or £84,000 including VAT. The award will be based entirely on price, assessed against the total project cost and pricing schedule. The tender documents set the participation requirements, and the opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits roofing and general building contractors able to renew flat roof coverings and fit replacement windows in an occupied school environment. Suppliers need the practical capacity to coordinate removal, safe storage and reinstatement of electrical services, CCTV, signage and aerials, and to modify roof upstands for the new covering. They must be able to provide and manage fixed scaffolding, protective netting and fan protection, while keeping entrances and emergency exits unobstructed and safe for building users. Heras fencing and control of unauthorised access are also required. The work is suitable for SMEs and will favour a contractor able to price the complete project competitively and deliver the scheduled works within the contract period.
