Summary of the contracting process

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council commissioned a full refurbishment of Viables Farmhouse, a detached, traditionally built two-storey property in Basingstoke. The building was historically a farmhouse and was later converted on the ground floor first into a wine bar and then an Indian restaurant. The work falls within building refurbishment and renovation, specifically the refurbishment of a run-down building. The contract concerns the premises as a whole; the published scope does not set out individual work packages or technical tasks. Delivery is in the Basingstoke area. The council is the buying organisation and the work is a building refurbishment project rather than a supply of goods or an ongoing service.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Managing Property Maintenance Limited. The council used a below-threshold limited competition under its works procedure. There was one lot. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026 and runs from 28 September to 18 December 2026. Its value is £262,884.02 excluding VAT (£315,460.82 including VAT). The award is active and the contract is active. The stated description identifies a full refurbishment, but the procurement data does not give a separate evaluation formula or explain how bids were scored.

For similar refurbishment work at this council, a credible supplier would need to deliver a full building renovation, with experience suited to an existing, traditionally built two-storey property and the practical demands of refurbishing premises with a varied former use. The awarded project demonstrates demand for a single, whole-property works package rather than several separately described lots, and for a contractor able to take responsibility for refurbishment delivery. The contract was awarded through limited competition below the applicable threshold, so suppliers should be prepared for a competitive process that may involve a restricted field rather than an open invitation. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that a business of that scale has delivered this requirement; this does not establish a formal size restriction.
