Summary of the contracting process

Southampton City Council’s Education Asset Repair and Maintenance Programme covers repair and maintenance works to education assets in Southampton. The procurement is categorised as construction work. It was arranged as one programme-wide lot through the council’s use of a framework, with a mini-competition among framework suppliers. The work is for the council’s education estate; the published delivery location identifies the Southampton area. The programme is intended to address repair and maintenance requirements across those assets, rather than a single named building or a specified individual project.

The procurement is complete and awarded. Southampton City Council selected Axis CLC Contractors Ltd. The contract was signed on 7 July 2026 and is valued at £30 million. The award date is not stated. The route was a limited procedure, run as a mini-competition under the NHF framework without a separately published competition call. Four framework providers submitted responses. The lot was described as evaluated on price, quality and social value, with the detailed lot text giving weightings of 40%, 50% and 10% respectively; its award-criteria entry separately records cost at 50%. The contract includes an option for extensions totalling up to two years, in one or more periods, with six months’ notice of the council’s decision on extension.

For a future requirement from Southampton City Council, credible competitors will need to deliver building repair and maintenance across education assets, with the capacity to manage a substantial, programme-wide works contract. The selected supplier was Axis CLC Contractors Ltd, and four providers competed through the framework mini-competition, demonstrating a route suited to suppliers already appointed to the relevant framework. Competition considered price, quality and social value, so a strong offer would need to show both value for money and a persuasive delivery approach, alongside meaningful social-value commitments. Relevant construction and property-maintenance experience, sufficient workforce and operational capacity, and the ability to provide detailed, well-supported tender responses would help a supplier compete effectively for this buyer’s requirement.
