Summary of the contracting process

Somerset Council commissioned urgent building maintenance works at Block TA in Somerset. The requirement covers replacement of life-expired flat-roof coverings, repairs to external Steni wall-cladding panels and renewal of a timber entrance door. This is a works contract focused on overhaul and refurbishment, combining roofing, external wall-cladding and entrance-door renewal within one building project. The purpose is to address D1 priority condition issues and restore the building’s weather protection, external fabric and entrance-door condition. The council is the buying organisation and the work is delivered in Somerset. The scope would suit a building contractor or specialist refurbishment firm able to coordinate roofing repairs, cladding-panel work and joinery or door-renewal activities as a single maintenance package.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Somerset Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, for a single lot. CIG SW LTD was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 11 August 2026 and runs from 12 August to 30 October 2026. Its value is £47,792 excluding VAT, or £57,350 including VAT. The award covers the full Block TA requirement rather than separately awarded elements. The published procurement information classifies the work as overhaul and refurbishment. The process therefore records a completed, non-competitive route in which the council selected one supplier for the combined roof, external cladding and entrance-door maintenance works.

This award provides a clear example of Somerset Council’s demand for urgent, small-scale building-condition and fabric-maintenance work, and of the supplier profile that secured it: an SME capable of taking responsibility for several related trades within one refurbishment package. A credible competitor for comparable council work would need practical expertise in flat-roof replacement and repair, Steni or similar external cladding systems, timber entrance-door renewal and general building refurbishment. The ability to respond to priority condition issues, manage coordinated works on an occupied or operational public building, and deliver a complete package rather than an isolated trade would strengthen its position. Firms with complementary roofing, cladding and joinery capacity could use this requirement to assess their fit for future Somerset Council maintenance opportunities.
