Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council procured refurbishment works for a titled property in Neithrop, Oxfordshire, to provide short-breaks accommodation. The requirement was delivered under a 2024 JCT Minor Works Contract with Design, so the appointed contractor was responsible for both refurbishment activity and the design element required for the works. This is a construction and building refurbishment opportunity rather than a supply or routine facilities-management contract. The procurement covered one lot and falls within the broad category of refurbishment work. The council is the public-sector buyer, with the work focused on its Neithrop property and intended to support accommodation for short breaks.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. It used a below-threshold limited competition, meaning a restricted group of suppliers was invited to compete rather than an open tender. Fletcher Services Oxford Ltd was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 11 September 2025 and runs from 11 September to 15 December 2025. Its value is £196,915 excluding VAT, or £236,298 including VAT. The tender was evaluated through the limited-competition route; the published information does not set out separate quality, price or other weighting. The requirement was awarded as a single completed lot.

This procurement indicates demand from Oxfordshire County Council for building refurbishment delivered through a JCT Minor Works Contract with Design. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to undertake refurbishment works while also providing the associated design capability, and should understand the obligations and administration of the JCT form. Relevant experience would include refurbishing existing council or residential-style property for accommodation use, coordinating design and construction, and delivering a defined works package within a short programme. Firms with the capacity to manage public-sector contract requirements, site delivery, quality, health and safety, and completion of occupied or accommodation-related property works would be well placed when this type of requirement returns.
