Summary of the contracting process

Bath & North East Somerset Council procured repair and maintenance works for Alexander Park. The requirement is classified as construction work and concerns physical works rather than goods or professional services. Alexander Park is the named project location. The council is the public-sector buyer, based in Bath, and the contracted supplier is H. MEALING & SONS LIMITED, a construction business based in Batheaston. The procurement covered one requirement, with the work delivered for the council’s park asset. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are contractors able to undertake construction-related repair and maintenance work in the Bath and North East Somerset area. The available description does not identify a more specific trade, asset type, work package or technical specialism.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. H. MEALING & SONS LIMITED was selected for the single requirement. The contract was signed on 7 August 2026 and runs from 1 October to 31 December 2026. Its value is £52,200 excluding VAT, or £62,640 including VAT. The procurement was evaluated through a limited competition rather than an open procedure. The recorded outcome is an active contract, and the award is active. The published information identifies construction work as the classification and repair and maintenance work as the purpose. No separate lot values or multiple supplier awards are recorded for this procurement.

This award is useful market evidence for construction contractors serving Bath & North East Somerset Council’s estate and parks. It shows demand for a defined, short-duration package of repair and maintenance works at Alexander Park, procured through a below-threshold limited competition. A credible future competitor would need to demonstrate practical construction capability, experience of carrying out repair and maintenance work, and sufficient operational capacity to complete a council park project within a concentrated delivery period. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that the requirement was delivered by a smaller construction business rather than only a major national contractor. Firms with relevant local delivery experience and the ability to respond to limited competitions would be well placed when a comparable requirement returns.
