Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council commissioned building works at Barley Hill School covering boiler roof replacement and asbestos removal. The requirement is principally construction and specialist asbestos-removal work, including the safe removal of asbestos associated with the school’s roof and boiler facilities. Delivery is for the council’s school estate in Oxfordshire, with the named site being Barley Hill School. The buying organisation is Oxfordshire County Council, a sub-central public authority. The selected supplier, BF-LED Ltd, is a small or medium-sized enterprise based in Witney. The work combines general building activity with hazardous-material removal, so it is relevant to contractors able to manage both the physical replacement works and asbestos-related site controls within an operational education environment.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to BF-LED Ltd. It used a below-threshold limited competition, with one completed lot. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026, for the period from 3 August 2026 to 1 September 2026. Its stated value is £126,934.52 excluding VAT and £152,321.42 including VAT. The contract is active and allows renewal or variation of commencement and completion dates under clause 2.7 of the JCT contract. The contract period includes 12 months for rectification before final payment, and the maximum stated contract extent is 2 August 2030. The awarded requirement is classified as asbestos-removal work, alongside the described boiler roof replacement works.

This award indicates a local authority requirement for a compact, specialist school-building project that combines roof and boiler-related replacement with asbestos removal. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical building capability, demonstrable asbestos-removal competence, and the ability to coordinate hazardous-material controls with roofing or mechanical works on an education site. It would also need sufficient project management capacity to work to a short initial delivery window while supporting rectification obligations before final payment. BF-LED Ltd’s selection shows that an SME can deliver this type of below-threshold council requirement. Suppliers with proven school, public-sector or occupied-site experience, reliable health and safety systems, and the ability to manage JCT-based delivery would be well placed when Oxfordshire County Council next reviews comparable works.
