UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council is procuring works to provide a modular special educational needs (SEN) pod at Grassmoor Primary School in Chesterfield, Derbyshire. The pod will be located within the soft-play space of the main playground. The requirement covers the design, supply, delivery and commissioning of the modular building, together with its associated building services and external works. This is a construction project involving modular and portable buildings and related site works. The council is the public-sector buyer and the work is to be delivered at the school site in Chesterfield. Site visits are permitted, allowing interested suppliers to inspect the proposed location before preparing their tender.

The procurement reached tender: Derbyshire County Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with electronic submission allowed through the ProContract e-tendering portal. The tender information records a submission deadline of 10 September 2026 at 23:59, while the submission instructions state that the actual tender deadline was 16 March 2026. The contract period is 1 December 2026 to 9 March 2027. The estimated value is £130,000 excluding VAT and £156,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Tenders are evaluated on price, weighted at 75%, and quality, weighted at 25%. The procurement is below the relevant threshold.

This opportunity suits construction contractors and modular-building specialists able to take responsibility for the full delivery chain: design, manufacture or supply, transport, installation, commissioning and associated building services and external works. Suppliers should be able to coordinate construction activity within an operational primary-school setting and deliver a completed SEN facility ready for use. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so it may fit an established regional contractor, a modular building provider, or a consortium combining building, services and external-works capability. A site visit is permitted, which will help bidders assess access, the playground location and the practical requirements of installing the pod.
