UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) commissioned external perimeter road construction works for the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC). The work concerns roads around the facility; the procurement describes the requirement as external perimeter road works and classifies it as road construction. Delivery is in Oxfordshire, England. UKRI is the buying organisation, and the contract was awarded to DH Building Services Oxford Ltd. This is a civil engineering and roadworks requirement for a central government research organisation, rather than a general building-services contract.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. UKRI used a below-threshold limited competition, with one lot. DH Building Services Oxford Ltd was selected for the contract. It was signed on 8 October 2026, with an award date not stated. The contract runs from 9 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £91,250 excluding VAT and £109,500 including VAT. The available award information identifies road construction works but does not set out an evaluation basis or detailed award criteria.

This award shows UKRI’s demand for external perimeter road construction at an STFC facility, delivered through a limited competition. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need credible civil engineering and roadworks capability, including the practical capacity to undertake works on roads around a research facility. Relevant delivery experience would help demonstrate an ability to manage the site-specific demands of perimeter works. The successful supplier was a large company, indicating that a supplier with sufficient organisational capacity to deliver a defined works contract was selected. Road construction contractors with comparable experience and the resources to perform this kind of external infrastructure work are the closest fit when this buyer’s requirement returns to market.
