Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council commissioned building works at Crosshouse Early Childhood Centre, Annandale Gardens, Crosshouse, KA2 0LE. The project covers door renewals and new sink areas at the Crosshouse Communications Centre, supporting an ASN setting. It is a construction and refurbishment requirement, with associated electrical, mechanical and potentially asbestos-removal work. The council is the buying organisation and the work is delivered at the early childhood centre in Crosshouse. The relevant construction classification is CPV 45453000, covering refurbishment and overhaul work. Suppliers would need to be able to manage the main works and coordinate specialist subcontractors where required, including electrical, mechanical and asbestos-related activities. The requirement is for one completed lot covering the centre upgrades.

This procurement has been awarded following an open procedure. Six electronic bids were received, with the contract awarded to Westgale Ltd. The contract value is £70,240.50 including the stated GBP currency, and the contract was signed on 25 May 2026. The construction work was specified to take eight weeks, while the contract period is recorded as 60 days. Tender submissions closed at 12:00 on 5 May 2026, with bid opening at the same time. Evaluation required suitable technical arrangements and financial standing. Electrical contractors needed NICEIC Approved Contractor or SELECT Approved Certifier registration, or equivalent; mechanical contractors needed HVCA or CIPHE membership, or equivalent; and asbestos-removal contractors needed an HSE licence. Required insurance included £5 million public and products liability and £10 million employers’ liability.

This award is useful market evidence for construction contractors experienced in refurbishment work within early-years or education settings, particularly where the works combine door replacement with new welfare or sink areas. Credible competitors would need to coordinate building, electrical and mechanical trades, and arrange suitably qualified asbestos-removal capability where required. The buyer’s requirements favour firms with access to NICEIC, SELECT, HVCA or CIPHE registered specialists, HSE-licensed asbestos contractors and appropriately trade-certified employees. Strong financial controls and accurate Creditsafe records are important, because financial standing was screened through that provider rather than alternative credit agencies. Contractors should also be able to maintain substantial public, products and employers’ liability cover and deliver a short, tightly managed programme in an occupied public-sector environment.
