UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council procured works to install new windows and doors at Bicester fire station. The requirement is commercial glazing work, covering the removal and installation of windows and doors at a fire station in Bicester, Oxfordshire. The council is the buying organisation and the work is for its fire station estate. The procurement was treated as works rather than goods or services, with glazing work as the stated classification (CPV 45441000). The published description identifies Newbury Commercial Glazing Limited in connection with the requirement. This is a building and facilities improvement project suited to firms delivering commercial window and door installation, glazing replacement and associated site works in public-sector or operational premises.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed and awarded to Newbury Commercial Glazing Limited. The contract was signed on 7 September 2026, with the contract period running from 7 September 2026 to 13 November 2027. The stated maximum extent is 7 September 2030, and renewal is provided for under the contract. The awarded value is £27,450 excluding VAT, or £32,940 including VAT. The contract is active. Its period includes 12 months for rectification, while commencement and completion dates may vary in accordance with clause 2.7 of the JCT contract. No separate award evaluation weighting or criteria are recorded in the procurement information.

This completed award gives commercial glaziers a clear example of Oxfordshire County Council’s demand for replacement windows and doors at operational public buildings, using a below-threshold limited competition route. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical commercial glazing and door-installation capability, experience working safely in an active fire-station or similarly operational environment, and the capacity to manage a defined works package through to completion. Firms should also be able to work under JCT contract terms, accommodate changes to commencement or completion dates, and provide effective post-completion rectification support. The awarded supplier was an SME, indicating that this scale and type of council works can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large national contractor.
