UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health commissioned construction work for Ards MHOPC: an internal remodelling, an extension to an outbuilding, associated siteworks and drainage, and alterations to mechanical and electrical services. The scope also covers a storage container and partial refurbishment. This is a building and facilities project rather than a supply-only requirement, with work involving refurbishment, extension and supporting infrastructure. The buying organisation is the Department of Health. The project is associated with Ards MHOPC; the procurement data does not identify a more specific delivery place. The stated scope indicates relevance to construction contractors able to undertake building alterations and extensions alongside siteworks, drainage and building-services changes.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Mascott Construction. The buyer used a limited competition below the applicable threshold, with one completed lot. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026 and is scheduled to run from 1 December 2026 to 1 April 2027. Its value is £283,037 excluding VAT, or £339,644.40 including VAT. The award is recorded as active. The procurement data does not provide a separate award date or specific evaluation criteria, so the basis for selecting the contractor beyond the limited competition route is not stated. The selected supplier is based in Belfast.

This award shows that the Department of Health buys small-scale building refurbishment and extension work for health-related facilities through limited competition below the applicable threshold. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to deliver internal remodelling and outbuilding extensions, together with siteworks, drainage and mechanical and electrical alterations. The combined scope points to the need to coordinate building work with external works and building-services trades, rather than provide a single isolated service. Mascott Construction, the selected supplier, is an SME, showing that a smaller construction business secured this contract. Contractors with the capacity to manage a compact, multi-discipline project and relevant experience in occupied or operational healthcare settings would be well placed to compete when comparable work returns to this buyer.
