UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Exeter City Council commissioned building alteration works to convert the toilets at Market Street car park. The requirement is a focused conversion project at the council’s car park in Exeter, rather than a general car-park or facilities management service. The published scope identifies the works as toilets conversion; it does not describe specific fixtures, construction methods or other technical elements. The selected contractor is based in Plymouth, while delivery is in Exeter. This is a municipal building project for suppliers undertaking alterations and refurbishment of public facilities, with the work centred on changing the existing toilet accommodation at one car park.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Mercury Construction (South West) Ltd was selected for the works. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026, with a contract period from 24 August to 11 September 2026. Its value is £45,000 excluding VAT and £54,000 including VAT. The process was described as below threshold; the specific procurement method is not recorded. One lot covered the conversion works. The award data identifies building alteration work as the contracted category. No award date, eligibility requirements or evaluation criteria are recorded in the available process information, so the outcome cannot be linked to a stated scoring basis.

For construction firms, this award shows Exeter City Council buying a small, tightly scoped package of public-building alteration work: conversion of existing toilet facilities at a car park. A credible competitor when comparable work returns would need to deliver refurbishment and conversion works efficiently in an occupied or operational public-facility setting, coordinating the building work within a short programme. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that this project was delivered by a smaller contractor rather than requiring a large national provider. The record does not establish particular accreditations, specialist systems or technical qualifications, so it supports no claim that these are mandatory. Relevant experience in building alterations and managing compact council works is the clearest commercial fit.
