Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned urgent structural repair work to an impact-damaged garage pier at Lakeside School. This is a building repair project rather than a broader school construction programme: the stated scope is focused on making good the damaged pier. The contracting process is categorised as works, and the associated building-construction classification points to construction contractors with structural repair capability. The delivery location is Hampshire, United Kingdom. The buyer is Hampshire County Council, a local public authority. The work concerns the school’s garage structure; no wider building refurbishment or additional repair scope is identified.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Hampshire County Council selected ABLE (SOUTH) LTD for the single lot through a selective route, awarding under an existing framework without a competitive call-off. The contract was signed on 6 October 2026 and runs from 12 October to 28 October 2026. Its value is £19,602 excluding VAT, or £23,523 including VAT. The award is recorded as active. No separate scoring or evaluation criteria are stated; the disclosed route is a framework award rather than an open competition. The contract covers the structural repair to the impact-damaged garage pier at Lakeside School.

For firms that did not win, this award shows Hampshire County Council’s demand for small, focused structural repairs to school buildings, including urgent work to damaged structural elements. A credible competitor for similar requirements would need practical building repair and structural repair expertise, the ability to assess and make good impact damage, and capacity to mobilise quickly for a tightly scoped job. The buyer used a framework route for this award, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be positioned to participate through relevant frameworks. The successful supplier is a small business, demonstrating that this scale of repair can be delivered by an SME. The requirement is distinct from large-scale construction: relevant experience in responsive repairs at occupied or operational school sites would be pertinent.
