Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council procured construction works to remodel a pedestrian entrance and create new emergency vehicular access to school grounds. The scope also covered alterations to Forest School fencing, additional planting of perimeter hedging, and installation of sunken soakaway crates to help alleviate flooding. This is a combined school-site access, fencing, landscaping and flood-prevention project, rather than a standalone electrical installation. The work was delivered for the council’s school estate in Oxfordshire. The relevant construction categories include flood-prevention works, building alteration work, and fencing, railing and safety-equipment installation. Businesses suited to this requirement would need to coordinate several site disciplines and deliver physical works safely in an operational or educational setting.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One supplier, JK Electrical Installations Ltd, was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 12 December 2025 and ran from 15 December 2025 to 5 January 2026. Its value was £19,123.24 excluding VAT, or £22,947.90 including VAT. The selected supplier is recorded as an active contractor and the contract as active. The process used a limited procurement method rather than an open competition. The available outcome records identify the successful supplier and the completed lot, but do not set out a separate award date or detailed evaluation weighting. This was a small-scale, below-threshold works contract for a defined school-access and flood-alleviation project.

For a future requirement of this type, credible competitors would need to combine small construction and alteration works with practical site coordination. Relevant capability includes remodelling pedestrian access, forming emergency vehicle access, installing or modifying fencing, carrying out perimeter planting, and fitting below-ground soakaway crates or other flood-alleviation measures. The work points to a need for contractors able to manage varied trades within one school-site package, interpret site constraints, and complete works safely around educational premises. Experience of access improvements, drainage or surface-water control, fencing and external works would help demonstrate suitability. A small or specialist contractor able to take responsibility for the whole package, or coordinate competent subcontractors, would be well placed to compete when this buyer next requires comparable school-estate works.
