Summary of the contracting process

Newark and Sherwood District Council commissioned building works to create two new retail or office units on the mezzanine floor of the Buttermarket in Newark, with additional storage. The requirement is a small commercial-space development involving building installation work. The delivery location is Newark, and the council is the buyer.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. It was run as a below-threshold limited competition. Johnson & Smith (Lincoln) Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and runs from 3 August to 2 December 2026. Its value is £45,846.28 excluding VAT, or £55,015.54 including VAT. The procurement was for one lot. The published data does not give an award date or evaluation criteria.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible competitors are likely to be building contractors able to create or adapt retail and office space within an existing commercial building, including providing associated storage. The completed award shows that Newark and Sherwood District Council has bought a modest, focused package of building installation works through a limited competition. Suppliers with relevant construction and fit-out experience, and the capacity to deliver a small project at the Buttermarket in Newark, are the closest match. The award went to a small or medium-sized supplier, demonstrating that a business of that scale was selected for this work.
