Summary of the contracting process

Huntingdonshire District Council is seeking bespoke retail pods and their installation on Ramsey Great Whyte, Cambridgeshire. The works form part of the council’s public realm pedestrianisation project and cover the purchase and installation of up to four shop units. This opportunity is for suppliers able to design or provide bespoke retail pod structures and carry out installation at the site. The work is classified as shop-unit construction (CPV 45213112).

The council invited offers through an open, below-threshold works competition. The enquiry deadline was 29 October 2026 at 23:59, and the bid submission deadline was 9 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is scheduled to run from 7 December 2026 to 30 April 2027. The estimated value is £300,000 excluding VAT (£360,000 including VAT). The procurement is arranged as one lot. Evaluation gives 60% to quality, including social value, and 40% to price. Electronic submission is allowed.

This opportunity is suited to suppliers with the capability to deliver bespoke retail units and install them as part of a public-realm improvement project. Contractors will need to be able to manage the supply and installation of up to four pods at Ramsey Great Whyte, within the stated contract period. The quality assessment, which carries greater weight than price, includes social value, so bidders should be prepared to address both the quality of their proposed delivery and its social value contribution. The scope may suit a retail construction or modular structure specialist able to undertake installation work as well as supply the units. The council’s stated purpose is pedestrianisation and public realm improvement.
