Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council commissioned replacement windows and doors at Blackbird Leys Library in Oxford. The works cover installation of the new windows and doors, including their frames, under a JCT Minor Works 2024 contract. This is a single-site building improvement project for the council; the delivery location is the library in Oxford. The requirement is construction and glazing work rather than the supply of unrelated building services or products. The contract was managed by the county council, with Newbury Commercial Glazing Limited selected to carry out the works.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Oxfordshire County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to Newbury Commercial Glazing Limited. The award date is not stated; the contract was signed on 26 June 2026. Its initial period runs from 1 September to 2 October 2026, with an extension possible by mutual agreement under the contract’s extension-of-time clause; the stated maximum extent date is 31 August 2030. The contract value is £73,070 excluding VAT and £87,684 including VAT. No evaluation criteria are published in the process information.

This award demonstrates demand from Oxfordshire County Council for a specialist contractor able to replace windows and doors in a public library, including fitting frames, under a JCT Minor Works 2024 arrangement. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need practical commercial glazing and installation capability, and the capacity to complete a focused, single-building works package. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that this project was delivered by an SME; it does not establish a formal size restriction for future work. The limited-competition route is relevant to suppliers positioned to compete in a restricted process rather than relying on an open tender. Relevant experience in occupied or public-use buildings would help demonstrate fit for this buyer’s specific library works.
